“ My six year old son attended Missoula Children’s Theatre Camp this summer for the first time and not a day has gone by since that he has not talked about the camp! He loved it so much that we signed up for another session the next week. He adored the whole experience of being in a play but he also loved the music, dance, and art sessions.” “It was a magnificent experience for him. He had the opportunity to share with a fantastic group of people and discover how much he was interested in hip hop dance. He doesn’t stop talking about his great time at summer camp!” “ She loved it! Since she was nine years old, she’s kept a binder of outfit designs she has sketched and was very excited to share her sketches with the fashion instructor.”
