Powered by GoogleThrough the years, Theater in the Woods has been a delight for my children and now, my grandchildren. The staff is always happy, energetic, and creative, allowing the most freedom of expression, yet always with kindly sensitivity. We are anticipating 2021 Theater in the Woods with great joy!
My kids participated in this theater camp since 2016. It is amazing! Full days of creating , rehearsing, and playing outdoors with the best staff ever!!! They are vibrant, caring, fully engaged, and incredibly talented. One daughter sums it up, "best summer camp ever!"
My two children have gone to every camp since it began! We are headed back for another year because it encourages them to think outside the box, to freely express themselves, and collaborate with others to publicly perform.
This camp is a wonder! The professional, caring, and talented staff bring out the best in young people—both as actors and humans. My son will attend for the 5th year in a row, and he can’t wait! He’s been in both the younger group and the older one (12+), and each year, he’s grown in confidence, theater knowledge, and ability to communicate effectively. This is a down-to-earth day-camp which encourages kids’ imagination, learning, and love of nature. And the converted barn on acres of land is magical!
This is THE MOST AMAZING CAMP! Located in beautiful Vermont, these children learn a play and perform it amidst sets designed in the woods - literally! It is phenomenal! My son is about to attend his 3rd year and can't wait!!! BRAVO TITW! You are making the world a better place one camper at a time!!
