Join us in an immersive magical world. The camp is the show, as we will be in costume and in character the whole time.
The magical world of Theatrical Wizardry brings together all of the creative arts to welcome your child into a unique world called The Rainbow Path, written by Headmistress Iris Imaginoria.
Adult/staff ratio 4:1. Camp nurse with CPR and first aid certification on staff.
Our theme for 2022 is based on the play “The Day the Rocks Cried Out” -- the story of a shapeshifting dragon and a rainbow of gemstones. Students who do not wish to act can choose to work on the production team.
LGBTQ+ and neurodiverse friendly. All are welcome at our magical school!

Our Monday-Friday session starts by sorting students into four unique houses, Phoenixfire, Stonedragon, Windhorse, & Waverider. Students are sorted through light by way of a magical mirror.
In their multi-age houses, they meet in common rooms for teamwork games and activities to explore the qualities of peace, hope, strength, and love, serve magical snacks to the community, and complete a service project... because we teach that the real magic in life is helping others. Together they earn house points to try to win the house cup, but learning kindness and cooperation is more important than competition. |

Wizarding Classes:
Every day, students attend intensive theatre classes with kids their own age based on national core theatre arts standards and our inclusive magical world.
In Potions, we mix vocal and acting exercises with science experiments:
History of Magic is about creating and developing their own original characters and playwriting in this unique magical world.
Magical Creatures combines movement with animal studies for an energetic class.
Herbology allows kids to study magical plants by making props through arts & crafts.
Transfiguration is a favorite... bringing inanimate objects to life through puppetry!
In Charms students learn physical acting and stage combat as the basis for cooperative wizards' duels.
In PRISM, we learn to fight the darkness of low self-esteem, fear, and self-doubt through positive social emotional skills. These help reinforce strong acting techniques.
Incantations is a music class, where students learn original camp songs.
We will also work together to produce an original short play based on the theme. Students can choose to act or participate in the production team. In 2022, our play is "The Day the Rocks Cried Out," the story of Miglionofore, a shapeshifting Dragon, and a Rainbow of Gemstones.
