Production Training Masterclass Camps

Our Production Training Masterclass camps will cover various areas of production, and will develop student’s “behind-the-scenes” theater skills, preparing them for future internships with Playful People Productions, and building a well rounded understanding of all aspects of theater.  These masterclass camps compliment our summer performance camps, and will work directly on projects that will be used for those performances.

Our Production Training camps are especially wonderful for students who prefer to be more involved in the creation and design of productions, rather than as a performer on stage.
