We have camps and summer intensives for grades 5-8!
Summer Camps explore the fundamentals of improvisation and sketch comedy through character creation, monologues and performance dynamics. Campers will play fun improv games (like Whose Line is it Anyway?) to help access creativity, boost self-confidence and develop spontaneity and playfulness. We have a **NEW** selection of improv camps. So if your new to the artform, or you’ve got some experience and you are ready to be challenged – The Second City welcomes you! At the end of each camp, campers get a chance to show their friends and family just what they’ve learned with a culminating showcase! Camps are taught by talented, and experienced Second City instructors/actors.
