Welcome to the Journeymen Theatre Camp! Here, students in grades 6-8 are free to learn about and experiment with being onstage and behind the scenes of a theatre. Campers can take their pick among a wide variety of daily activities: Journeymen offers workshops in acting, musical theatre, technical theatre, and design.



          The Journeymen Camp is associated with Journeymen Theatreworks, an entirely student-run local theatre company founded in Ipswich. Our mission is to inspire community involvement in the arts, as well as to provide an outlet for young people's artistic skills. We took on the Journeymen Camp as not only a major way of fulfilling our mission, but also as the main fundraiser for our annual summer productions at the Boston Center for the Arts.
