Good Theatre Arts Summer Camp Jobs?

Posted: August 6th, 2011 | Author: | Filed under: Camping | Tags: , , , , , | 1 Comment »

Any suggestions for good Theatre Arts summer camps to work at? I have experience working at children’s summer camps for ages 8-18 teaching drama, specifically acting and improvisation. I also dabbled in full scale productions for one camp and working with disabled children. I really don’t care where in the US the camps are either. Any suggestions would be welcome! Thanks!


My 10-year-old disabled newphew wants to go to summer camp?

My sister has a disabled son who’s 10 years old. He is the sweetest kid you will ever meet. He is not physically disabled, but he has some learning disabilities and he has trouble using the bathroom on his own without help. Last summer my sister allowed him to go to a summer camp away for 2 weeks. The counselors assured her that they would take good care of him so she let him go under the condition that his older sister(who is 16) went too and made sure he was alright all the time. We found out that some of the kids were picking on him because of his bed wetting and saying he was retarded. My sister and I immediately went to pick him up. When he was to go home he through a temper tantrum and told us he hated us and that he didn’t want to leave. Camp starts this August and he wants to go. He says he loves camp, and I don’t understand why since that kids were bullying him. I don’t think it’s a good idea but my sister wants to let him go. Would you allow your son to go back

My family and I want to go on a short (3-5 day) vacation and we’re not sure where we can go. I have a handicapped person in my family, so she can’t walk by herself. We have gone to places like: Maine, Florida, Vermont etc. but we’re not sure where to go this year.
Any ideas?
Thanks =)
I am leaving from CT. The budget is about no more than $1,000 for the whole trip. Interests: water sports, horseback riding, any activity that is easy to do and not too espensive. Most likely we would drive in a car or possibly take a train, but no ariplane.

I would love to work with kids over the summer, disabled or sick, or just another camp. volunteer work would be fine but i would prefer a paid job. A sleep away camp would be great, just an experience. I would love to meet new people and work with kids.
In california.

My son is 14 yrs old and I feel he would be perfect for this. I would prefer the camp to be on long island, but if it’s an over night camp, i’m not opposed to sending him far away for a couple of weeks…..lord that sounds bad….i know…
