Participant Information Form

Please fill out one form per child attending.
Arcade’s two-day afternoon camp gives teens the chance to explore the art of improv comedy, with lessons on building a story collaboratively, developing an original voice, and improving confidence and stage presence. This weekend camp welcomes teens of all experience levels and personality types to bring their imaginations to our stage as our instructors guide them through improv games and exercises that practice listening skills, creativity, teamwork, and confidence.

The weekend concludes with a class performance which students’ family are welcome to attend. The performance will also be recorded and shared as a private YouTube link for family who can’t enjoy the show in-person.

Registration fee: $150 per child

Pick Up/ Drop Off Information

All classes will take place at Arcade Comedy Theater at 943 Liberty Ave. An attendant at the main box office will be there to sign your child in and out of each class. All campers must be picked up by a parent or legal guardian. If your camper is going to be signed out by someone other than their parent/legal guardian (babysitters, nannies, carpools etc) Please provide their full names and addresses in an email to the instructor. They will be asked to provide valid ID matching the information provided via email/handwritten note from the camper’s parent/ legal guardian. In the case of high school-aged campers, they may provide their own transportation, sign themselves in and out of camp with permission given by parent/ legal guardian.

What to Bring:

We recommend that everyone “dresses to improvise” everyday. We will be dancing, running, jumping, groovin’ and movin’ so campers should wear whatever allows them to be active.

Campers should also bring:

  • Water bottle
  • Notebook and pen
  • A light snack
  • Their imagination

Snacks & Allergy Information

During the four hour class we will break for a light snack brought from home. If your child has any allergies or special needs please email the Academy Director. We will do our best to accommodate your child’s needs and make sure everyone has an educational, safe, and fun time at the Arcade!
