Youth Camp Programs

The Heart of America Shakespeare Festival offers Shakespeare Camps to excite young people about live theatre, the stories of William Shakespeare, and the Festival. Students participate in workshops designed to give them a unique encounter with a variety of theatrical processes.

All Camp Shakespeare and Exploration camps will perform an abbreviated performance of Othello on the Saturday after each camp closes.

The Heart of America Shakespeare Festival Education Faculty includes theatre professionals, actors, and educators experienced in performing and teaching Shakespeare. Many of the instructors are veterans of Festival productions.
