Industry-Led Programmes
How OVATION! Summer Camps Stand Out
We're not your average camp. OVATION! offers one-of-a-kind programmes that focus on your child's interests and help them grow both on and off the stage. From musicals to film to comedy, our programmes give people real-world experience in performing arts.
What makes us different? Our team. Every programme is led by industry professionals - directors, choreographers, actors, and creators who bring passion and experience to every session. Expert training, mentorship, and a supportive space to explore creativity.
SMALL CLASSES = BIG DIFFERENCE!
Our programmes only accept between 8 to 16 participants and are specifically geared to provide more direct learning and experience to each performer.
