About CTS

Give your young performer a summer they’ll never forget!

 Civic Theatre’s Summer Sessions (Grades 1–12), July 13–24

Immerse students in the magic of the performing arts through acting, singing, movement, and creative collaboration led by professional teaching artists. Younger students bring the whimsical world of The Wind in the Willows to life through theatre games and storytelling, while Grades 3–8 take center stage with Give Our Regards to Broadway, exploring classic musical theatre through scene work, improv, choral speaking, and daily vocal selections. High school students dive deeper into the craft with focused training in the Meisner and Stanislavski acting techniques, comic improv and optional vocal performance instruction. The experience culminates in exciting final showcases where students share their creativity, confidence, and new skills with family and friends.

Students involved in the arts watch less TV and display more tolerant behavior towards others! Classes like those at Civic Theatre help foster positive achievement, collaborative-working and critical-thinking skills. Studies have shown that theatre classes can not only enhance creativity, but help develop skills that assist in learning languages and even mathematics.

Learn! Since theatre education is an interdisciplinary art form it satisfies our human need to express thoughts and feelings through written text, dramatic interpretation and multimedia production.
