Raven Theatre has announced its Take Flight Summer Camp will return to in-person classes this summer, featuring two training sessions in theatre arts for kids ages 6 - 14.
Great for beginners looking to learn the basics of performance or more advanced actors looking to hone their skills, Raven's team of professional teaching artists will help kids feel the confidence to contribute to the artistic process and the courage to try something new.
Over the course of two weeks, campers will create their own theatrical adaptations inspired by classic and popular children's stories. Their original work will be performed for family and friends on the final day of camp.
The two-week sessions are held Monday - Friday from 9 am - 3 pm, with an option of extended daycare from 3 - 4 pm, at Raven Theatre, 6157 N. Clark St. (at Granville) in Chicago's Edgewater neighborhood.
Please note: For everyone's safety, Raven Theatre requires full proof of vaccinations and masks for all campers. All COVID-19 policies and requirements will be updated at raventheatre.com/covid-19.
