CLASSES AT the S&S

The Scoundrel & Scamp Theatre offers workshops and ensemble training for youth and adults, with an emphasis on the collaborative nature of the theatrical art.  We partner with local primary and secondary schools to shape the complete theatre artist, onstage, backstage, and front-of-house.

Spring 2023 Classes will Run January through march.

NOTE: We are pleased to make available several scholarships to Scamps every year. If the cost of a Scamp class presents a barrier to your child enrolling, please contact us at classes@scoundrelandscamp.org and let us know — we’d love to provide you with a scholarship.

On a related note, if you know of someone who would be interested in supporting our Scamp scholarship program, please reach out to betsy@scoundrelandscamp.org.
