PERFORMING ARTS PROGRAM

Cayuga’s Performing Arts Program provides an opportunity for self-expression in a variety of different ways. The program emphasizes 3 main areas of instruction: Drama, Dance, and Music.

DRAMA PROGRAM
The Drama Activity includes instruction in basic acting techniques. For the more serious “actor or actress” who enjoys theatre performances, we feature The Drama Club. Our club members perform in 2 productions (1 production in each half-session). In addition to the Drama Activity and Drama Club, Cayuga’s Evening Activity Program also provides campers with an opportunity to perform on stage! Some of these evening activities include: Cabin Skit Night, MTV Night, Stars in Your Eyes, The Big Talent Show, and Puttin’ on the Hits, just to name a few.

DANCE PROGRAM
The Dance Activity includes instruction in modern dance, ballet, and jazz. Yoga and Aerobic Classes are available as well. You can also join The Dance Club and perform in our Dance Recital this summer! which gives you the opportunity to perform in front of the entire camp!

MUSIC PROGRAM
The Music Activity includes basic instruction in guitar and keyboards. And if you enjoy singing, you can sign-up for The Choir Club! Our musicians and singers have plenty of opportunities to perform on stage during the summer!

PERFORMING ARTS STAFF
Cayuga’s Performing Arts Program is headed-up by the Performing Arts Director. This director is usually a certified teacher who instructs theatre during the school year. The college-age instructors, who assist the Performing Arts Director, have been hired for their theatre experience and their ability to work with children. Our staff is qualified to instruct children on all levels of ability and talent.
