Education is just another way to "Get in on the ACT." Asheville Community Theatre's Tanglewood Youth Theatre has long been a successful and inspirational part of children’s creative education in Western North Carolina. Our theatre camp and classes have been popular favorites for years and are well-suited for any child interested in exploring the exciting world of theatre. Our faculty represents some of the finest talent in the area, and we are thrilled to have them at Tanglewood.

2010 Tanglewood Summer Camp

Proudly Sponsored by Earth Fare

"Healthy Play, Healthy Kids"

The best theatre camp in Asheville returns in 2010! This year's theme - "Laughter is the Best Medicine: Healthy Play, Healthy Kids" - means we're grounding our activities in having fun and the four foundations of healthy child development:

• physical fitness and movement
• teamwork
• expression
• creative problem solving.

Younger students will work with acting, music and visual arts by using improvisation and innovation; older students will delve deeper into theatre by writing scenes, putting movement to music, and creating and performing short films. We've even added an Advanced Camp for veteran campers who require more in-depth training.

This year we are introducing some nice new perks to camp including Extra Care from 7:45am until 5pm. We are also proud to have Earth Fare as a camp sponsor and will be offering snacks from Earth Fare as well as a chance to order their kid’s meals, Itty Bitty Bites, for delivery.
