The Big Skit Competition

This high-energy week-long drama camp gives actors the opportunity to create, collaborate, rehearse, perform, and compete in a live judged competition with awards. It has a fun reality-show feel, encourages teamwork and good sportsmanship, and gives young actors the chance to rise to a real challenge. Actors will work in teams throughout the week to write, rehearse, and perform original skits. Actors compete on Friday and have the opportunity to win awards such as Best Actor, Best Director, Best Skit, and more.
