How to Get into a Performing Arts Camp. Attending performing arts camp is a great way to develop
your talent – but you can't go if you don't get in. Here's how to wow the admissions committee.
You will need A passion for performing arts A computer with internet access An adult advisor
and a headshot (optional). Step 1. Begin your research early. The application process for
some camps occurs in winter or spring. Use the internet and your adult advisor to decide
which camps to apply to. Take into consideration the specialties, faculty, location, and tuition
costs of each camp. Step 2. Locate camp information and applications online. Application instructions
will specify requirements, such as photos, videos, letters of recommendation, or auditions.
Alternatively, call the camp's registration office and request that an application packet
be mailed to you. Step 3. Fill out each application neatly and completely. Read the instructions
carefully and collect the required materials, including application fees. Step 4. For each
camp, place the application and materials together in one packet. Mail the packets early
so they arrive before the application deadlines. Step 5. Follow audition instructions and arrive
prepared at the right time and place. Try your best and show that you're having fun!
Step 6. Allow yourself to relax. Rejection is part of every performer's life, but passion
and hard work are rewarded. Did you know Perry-Mansfield Performing Arts Camp in Colorado was founded
in 1913.
