At Quincy Music Theatre, we believe the stage is more than a place to perform—it’s a place to grow. Our youth theatre education programs inspire creativity, foster confidence and build lifelong skills through the transformative experience of theatre.
Each year, our annual summer camp, designed for ages 7-15, provides a fun and engaging introduction to theatre, where young performers can explore their creativity, develop new skills, and work together to put on a show. For teens aged 15-19, our summer intensive program offers focused training to hone their talents in acting, singing and dancing while also incorporating opportunities for those interested in aspects of theatre production, such as set design, lighting and stage management. Whether your child dreams of performing under the spotlight or working behind the scenes, QMT is the perfect place to inspire and nurture their passion for theatre.
