Youth Classes & Camps

After School Classes ~ 2024

Miners Alley offers after-school classes for students from pre-Kindergarten through 12th grade. Led by professional teaching artists with years of experience in theatre and education, students grow in confidence as they collaborate and communicate to create original work and to stage sensational performances.

Our classes are scheduled to follow the seasons: Fall, Winter, and Spring. Summer means it’s time for our award-winning summer camps!

 

Students in write-your-own classes develop new theatrical works as they gain experience in storytelling, creative collaboration, and performance. Students in performance classes work on new and familiar stories as they craft character, voice, music, and movement skills.

Our Winter 2024 session class listings will go live on Wednesday, December 6th.

Summer camp info and registration will be available in mid-January.
