Maricopa Community Youth Theatre
It’s showtime!
Join us this summer for a thrilling, hilarious, and slightly spooky musical adventure in Beetlejuice Jr. — the junior version of the Broadway hit based on Tim Burton’s iconic film! Campers, ages 8-18, will sing, dance, and act their way through this high-energy, wildly imaginative story about life, death, and everything in between.
Over the course of this six-week camp, students will work together to bring the world of the recently deceased (and the dearly dramatic Beetlejuice) to life. From building characters and mastering musical numbers to exploring comedic timing and stage movement, every camper will get a chance to shine—whether they’re a seasoned performer or stepping onstage for the first time.
Camp culminates in a fully staged performance for family and friends, complete with costumes, lights, and all the ghostly fun you can handle.
Dates: Mondays – Fridays, beginning June 2nd
Time: 7pm – 9pm
Location: Leading Edge Academy Maricopa Cafeteria
Performance: July 9th – 11th at 7pm and July 12th at 2pm
No experience necessary – just a love for performing and a sense of humor!
