Join us for our 2024 summer camp season where your student will create and perform their own story at Chicago Children’s Theatre!
In our camps for ages 4-14, we prioritize young people’s creativity, ingenuity, and self-expression.
That’s why we devise with kids. Devised theatre is a method of creating original plays and theatre works as a group and then performing that original work together.
In the first half of a CCT camp, campers practice their performance skills, generate ideas for characters and scenes, and collaborate with professional theatre artists to mold their big ideas into a cohesive piece of theatre. In the second half of camp, campers finalize, rehearse, and perform their original work.
All camps culminate in a performance or sharing on the final day of camp for family and friends to attend, with many performances held in CCT’s Pritzker Family Studio Theatre.
Financial Aid is available and free before-and-after care is offered for all students.
