Defy gravity with your voice.This voice-focused musical theatre camp is designed for students who are ready to step into the spotlight and sing their hearts out to the soaring, emotional songs of Wicked. From Elphaba’s powerhouse anthems to Glinda’s playful solos and stunning ensemble harmonies, campers will dive deep into the show’s most iconic vocal moments — all while building their technique, confidence, and ability to tell compelling stories through song.
Throughout the week, students will rehearse group and solo selections from the show, learn to interpret lyrics with character-driven expression, and explore stage movement, harmonies, and breath control — all while building community with fellow performers.
NOTE: This is not a full stage production — it’s a vocal training experience rooted in musical theatre excellence, audition prep, and technique.

- Learn and rehearse songs from Wicked, including “Defying Gravity,” “For Good,” and more
