Kids, if you love to perform on stage, join Summer Showtunes Camp at the Westside Players Academy. Camp session is July 8 through 19 with dress rehearsal and performance July 20. Space is still available and the camp is open to students between 2nd and 12th grades. (You must have completed 1st grade.)
The two-week session promises fun and excitement, honing or just finding your talents in singing, dancing and acting. You will love instructors, Lois Leftwich and Tim Caffee.

She also developed her love of teaching while in Connecticut and has led a variety of Musical Theatre and Acting Camps for ages 5 through 17.
Tim is an accomplished Pianist and Music Director. Originally from Norfolk, Virginia, he is currently Music Director at Central Christian Church and a teacher with Highland Park ISD. Tim enjoys working with young actors on nurturing and bringing out their best talents.
