"13" from 13 by Jason Robert Brown.

Texas Arts Project has become the most-​looked-​forward-​to event of the Summer in our house. This sum­mer will be the 4th year that our daugh­ter, Josie, will attend TAP camp. Her love for musi­cal the­ater was cat­a­pulted after her first sum­mer at TAP. Her expe­ri­ence there has given her the skills to audi­tion, to mem­o­rize lines, and to per­form on stage, all with con­fi­dence of a pro. She has made life­long friends from all over the United States. Ginger, Kelly, and their team are all pro­fes­sion­als with open hearts and open minds — deter­mined to show­case your child’s tal­ent, what­ever it may be.

Junior Camps, for ages 9 – 13, focus on singing, act­ing and danc­ing. Structured classes com­bined with an intense rehearsal process and a lot of fun, make the Junior Camp a won­der­ful expe­ri­ence for the young artist. Broadway style songs and dances are rehearsed and per­formed at the end of the session.

Junior Camp is devoted to the­atri­cal train­ing where campers are chal­lenged in an encour­ag­ing envi­ron­ment, stretch­ing to reach their indi­vid­ual poten­tial on a daily basis. When they are not train­ing, campers enjoy planned activ­i­ties includ­ing swim­ming, arts and crafts, kite fly­ing, scav­enger hunts and more. Campers are assigned to big broth­ers and big sis­ters from Senior Camp for joint activ­i­ties dur­ing the week. Each ses­sion cul­mi­nates in a final per­for­mance showcase.
