Do you have little ones who thrive when they are the centre of attention? Do they dance around the living room, sing throughout the house, and love to perform? We have a camp for them! Unicorn Theatre Summer Drama Camps will allow your child to hone their talents and prepare them for the stage.

Unicorn Theatre is considered a gem in the heart of St. Margaret’s Bay. In 1995, this youth theatre grew from a drama camp held at the Shore Club in Hubbards. The talent and enthusiasm of the young actors impressed the camp organizers, who established a year-round children’s theatre. The theatre is run by volunteers, with a full program of activities for kids during the school year and two major productions. In the summer, Unicorn Theatre runs seven weeks of summer drama camp.

Summer Drama Camps

Summer Drama Camps at Unicorn Theatre will offer children in grades 2 to 7 an opportunity to prepare and perform a show and learn more about the theatre while participating in camp activities. Weekly, there will be games, theme days, talent shows, and more. All activities are designed to maximize fun and prepare participants to perform in one of two short musicals. Parents are invited to grab a front-row seat at each camp show every Friday at 2 pm.

Campers will be divided into two groups according to the grades they enter in September: grades 2 to 4 and 5 to 7. This will ensure that children can learn and grow with their peers, ultimately helping to cultivate long-lasting friendships.

Camps are scheduled to run from 9 am to 3 pm each day, with child care available from 8 to 9 am Monday to Friday and 3 to 5 pm Monday to Thursday, for $40 per week, per child. Each week of camp is $175 for one child, but $170 per child if you register more than one child in the same family.

Online registration for our Weeklong Summer Drama Camps will open at 8:30 am on Sunday, May 4th. Give that little performer of yours a summer to remember!
