Summer programs offered in Mt. Adams and Mason
CINCINNATI – Registration is now open for Cincinnati Playhouse in the Park’s immersive summer theatre camps and performance academies. Designed for campers entering 1st through 12th grade, the camps provide an opportunity to explore theatre while enjoying a diverse lineup of themes inspired by beloved films and Broadway hits, including KPop Demon Hunters, Wicked, Seussical KIDS, Legally Blonde, Hamilton and Superman.
Camps take place at the Playhouse’s Mainstage Theatre Complex in Mt. Adams and the Mason Community Center, with options for before and after care.
Guided by camp staff, campers learn performance techniques including musical theatre, stage combat, writing, acting, rehearsal and performance — while at the same time gaining confidence and exploring their individuality.
One-week theatre camps for campers entering Grades 1-6 or 1-10
- Learn the fundamentals of creating theatre with an informal Shareformance at the end of the week. Each week focuses on a unique theme: KPop Demon Hunters, Disney’s Zombies and Descendants, Super Mario, SpongeBob and Wicked: For Good.
One-week performance showcases for campers entering Grades 6-12
- Campers explore theatrical skills with an emphasis on performance and storytelling techniques and a Showcase at the end of the week. Showcase themes: Hamilton and KPop Demon Hunters.
Two-week performance academies for campers entering Grades 1-12
- Campers work together to stage a full-length play or musical from start to finish, while focusing on theatrical skills. Daily rehearsals culminate in a final performance complete with select costumes and set pieces. This summer’s performance academies are Seussical KIDS and Shrek KIDS for younger performers, with Legally Blonde The Musical JR. and Beware the Jabberwock for teens and tweens.
“The campers grow every single week, and we see it. A camper who comes in on the first day of a five-day camp is not the same camper who leaves on Friday,” says Ariana Moses, the Playhouse’s Education Director. “They’ve made friendships, they’ve formed a community, they’ve learned new skills, and they’ve put together something to show their family and friends.”
Summer Camp offers The Launch Pad Accessibility Program, offering opportunities for campers who have developmental disabilities, neurodivergence and sensory challenges to participate in camps and have their unique needs met. Camp staff are trained to meet specific needs and accommodations, and a family coordinator works with parents and caregivers to ensure a comfortable experience for their camper.
Enrollment is now open with early bird pricing through Feb. 28. Early bird tuition ranges from $320 – $750, depending on the week or session, and increases by $45 on March 1. Financial scholarships are available for campers who demonstrate need, and Before Care and After Care options are available at both locations.
