The Young Americans Performing Arts Workshop brings an incredible combination of high-energy, team-building, confidence-boosting FUN! Our cast is specially trained to provide a safe and fun atmosphere for students to learn, explore, create, and GROW! Workshops are designed to develop participants performing arts skills in singing, drama, and dance. Unlike other music performance workshops, no prior training or experience in singing, dancing, or acting is necessary. By the end of the Workshop, participants will learn and perform a one-act variety show, comprised of campers and The Young Americans’ performances, for their family and friends.

Each of the three days of the Workshop is filled with enthusiasm, encouragement, and care culminating in a staged performance. Workshop registration is limited so that The Young Americans can reach every student through individual attention to reveal their best qualities as performers and people. Our unique teaching style provides an encouraging environment for students to realize their potential and achieve the seemingly impossible goal of producing fully staged shows in just a few days. First-time campers, going into 3rd grade in the fall through the class of 2025, are always welcome! The registration cost is $100. 

Camp is open to students entering 3rd grade through 2025 graduates.

Registration will start at 12:30 PM on March 16th, with the workshop starting at 1 PM.

Students should wear comfortable, school-appropriate clothing and supportive shoes throughout the camp.

Camp dress code will be that of the host school.

Please, no sandals or flip-flops. Every camper will receive a t-shirt to wear for the performances and should wear it with dark jeans, pants, or leggings. Please no shorts for the shows.

YA Does not discriminate on gender expression or identity as part of the dress code.

The Young Americans and Center-Stanton High School are seeking host families for our workshop March 16-18. Thousands of families across the globe have hosted The Young Americans and rave about the experience. Staying with local families is one of the many rewarding aspects of participating in the workshop for the YAs and has cultivated life-long friendships over the years.

The YAs travel in pairs so we ask that you host at least two.

As a host, we ask that you provide transportation to and from the workshop each day as well as all meals.

As a token of gratitude, the YAs are offering two VIP tickets to the show(s)!
