BDT Academy, a not-for-profit 501c3 organization, was designed by Boulder's Dinner Theatre to
provide theatre and arts education to aspiring actors, technical directors and set designers. 

DRAMA CAMP
Students entering grades 6 through 12 are invited to participate in an intensive training in the
dramatic arts, with an emphasis on singing, dancing and acting.  Academy students will learn the
basics of producing their performance from beginning to end, including lighting, sound,
set design and stage management.  BDT Academy's Summer Drama Camp sessions are held
twice each summer for 3 weeks.
 

The 2011 performance will be CATS.
Middle and High school students - imagine performing CATS at Boulder's Dinner Theatre!!    Each camp session will culminate in a final production performed on the BDT stage … using the exact same set that will be used for the  Boulder's Dinner Theatre professional shows!!  Performances are open to the public and each student will receive two complimentary tickets.  Additional tickets will be available for $8 each.

BDTA/City Drama Camps
BDT Academy also has summer drama camps for children ages 5-12 in cooperation with the City of Boulder Parks and Recreation Department. We offer 9 week-long drama camps; from 8:30am - 4:30pm, Monday - Friday. The camps are held at Salberg Park at the corner of 19th St. and Elder Ave. Each week is different and uses the technique of "playmaking", which lets the children use their imagination to adapt a familiar story or write their own script! Each day consists of script writing or review, drama instruction, set and costume making, rehearsal, and outdoor playtime. There is a lovely playground/park at the drama camp site that we use for lunch and for breaks.
