Children’s Theatre Company offers school break camps so kids can keep the learning going while parents don’t have to worry about taking off work. Specially designed for children in Kindergarten through sixth grade, these camps span the 9am — 4pm day on October 17 and 18 and include learning circus-inspired skills that build confidence, character, and courage! Special to the MEA break camps, tuition includes seeing a performance of Circus Abyssinia: Ethiopian Dreams on the UnitedHealth Group Stage and a tour of the theatre.

What could be more fun than two full days of theatre class and performance at CTC? Hurry — spots fill fast! Read on below!
