East Providence Recreation to Hold Summer Theater Camp

East Providence, RI – The City of East Providence Recreation Department will offer a one-week summer theater camp in collaboration with Island Players Theater Group for aspiring actors ages 8-12, July 27- July 31, 2026, from 9 AM - 3 PM at the East Providence Recreation Center, located at 610 Waterman Ave.

This camp will be a simple introduction to the joys of the performing arts through fun games and various acting exercises. Students will learn the basics of stage performance, acting, directing, and script writing and end with a short play of their own creation for parents and friends to attend.

Classes will be taught by University of Rhode Island theater alumnus, Ryan Alexander! Our goal is to ensure students learn about the arts in a fun and safe environment. Come join us and discover the actor in you!

The camp fee is $225 per student. Pre-registration is required and available at www.eastprovidence.recdesk.com.
