* We have had a water break and flooding at the Trinity Playhouse that requires a major clean up situation that will make the building unavailable for Kidz Camp. We thank UNITED LOCAL SCHOOLS for providing our venue for the day camp and performances.

That said, we knew that Stage Left Youth Players' Kidz on Broadway would look different this year. We will follow Governor DeWine's wise guidelines and adapt as they evolve. We are determined to meet the challenge of hosting a safe and socially distant summer camp intensive.

This is our 20th year hosting our three week musical theatre intensive. It has been our policy to limit the camp to 42 participants and to give registration priority to former campers.  This summer, as we make our way through Covid 19 circumstances, we are limiting the participants to 36. Former campers who have completed K through 8th grade are being given first priority to register for camp.

What will camp look like this year?
Campers will rotate through music, theatre games, improvisation, design and Broadway repertoire as they have in the past to enjoy the magic of musical theatre with their Stage Left friends.

We believe we can do all that and still maintain a safe environment for staff, counselors and campers. To accomplish this, Campers will be grouped by age/grade and will travel in the same group of 8 throughout the day.  

We will follow the two weeks of day camp with a tech week of evening rehearsals and LIVE performances iat the Trinity Playhouse pending Covid restrictions>
 
IMPORTANT- Please make sure your camper is willing to abide by these camp rules.
          Campers will have their temperatures taken upon arrival at camp.
          Masks are required, and will be worn WHEN DEEMED NECESSARY throughout the day.
          Campers must provide personal water bottles that will be refilled throughout the day.
          Campers must provide personal lunches.
          Campers must be willing to maintain safe social distances as designated by staff and counselors.

To register for our camp Meet & Greet,  please complete this form. The Meet & Greet helps the kidz become familiar with the staff, and allows the staff to pre-assess each potential camper to create a growth plan.

All camp fees are due by Tuesday, June 22nd with cash or check payable to Stage Left Players.(Credit Card payments by arrangement.) After that, we will reach out to the Stage Left Kidz on our waiting list.
