Grace Theatre leadership aspires to train the next generation for excellence in the performing arts with the ultimate goal of giving glory to God. We want the children at our church who are interested in acting to have a safe, nurturing place to learn and grow.

The fee for the week is $85 per Camper. Each camper will receive a camp t-shirt, snacks, individualized training, and small-group instruction.

If there is a financial hardship, please contact Lydia Ehlen. lydia.ehlen@gracebaptist.org

Campers who are 8-11 years old will attend from 9am-12pm. Your child must be 8 years old by July 21, 2025, to attend this workshop.

Campers who are 12-16 years old will attend from 1pm-4pm. Your child must be 12 years old by July 21, 2025 to attend this workshop.

Unfortunately, no. Campers must turn 8 years old by July 13th, 2026 in order to participate in the workshops.

Campers will learn the basics of stage acting, the skill of working together as a cast, gain confidence in performing in front of others, and discover that the ultimate goal of every actor should be to glorify the One who gave them the desire to act. The workshop will open with prayer and a Bible verse of the day. Campers will then be introduced to the Acting Skill of the Day and will participate in improv games. They will break off into their groups to solidify the use of the skill. Then, they will all gather together to show their fellow actors their progress.

Yes, all campers will be assigned to a group with acting coaches from Grace Theatre. All of our coaches have been vetted by Grace Baptist Church and livescanned. Please remind your child to stay with their director/coach throughout the workshop.

Campers will be assigned to a group by the workshop leadership. They will have a chance to be with everyone in the first and third hours of the class.

Friends and family are welcome to attend the final hour of each age group on Thursday, July 16th, where the campers will perform the scene they have been working on throughout the week.

Campers are to wear their camp T-shirt. Have your child wear modest, comfortable clothing. It is important that they wear close-toed shoes.

Yes, each camper will be given a T-shirt and a script on the first day, which they must bring with them every day.

Yes, bottled water and snacks will be provided each day. If your child has any food allergies, please indicate them on the registration form.

Workshops will start and end each day on the High School Room stage in the Timothy Student Center. Campers will also be using the upstairs rooms in the Timothy Center when they break into individual groups.

Check-in will be in the lobby of The Timothy Student Center. They will be dismissed from the High School Room. Please be on time for both drop-off and pick-up.

While parents will not be permitted to attend the workshops, they will be able to attend a showcase during the last hour of the workshop on Thursday. Feel free to come during that time and enjoy watching the campers perform the skills they have acquired during the week.
