Get ready to grab your popcorn and take the spotlight at Lights, Camera, Action: Musical Theatre Camp! CYT invites performers ages 3–13 to step into the magic of the movies during a high-energy week filled with singing, dancing, acting, movie-themed games, creative activities, daily devotionals, and rehearsal as they prepare for an exciting final showcase performance. From the joy of the big screen to the thrill of performing movie favorites live onstage, this camp is a celebration of all things cinema and musical theatre.

Throughout the week, campers will rotate through engaging acting, vocal, and dance classes while also enjoying film-inspired games, creative challenges, and hands-on activities. Campers will sing songs from popular movies, explore what it’s like to perform, and get a fun peek behind the scenes at how movies are made—all in an age-appropriate, encouraging environment. With plenty of laughter, teamwork, and movie magic, this camp is perfect for performers who love the spotlight and the silver screen.
