Education
In the Education Department at Stage West, we are inspired by the same commitment to excellence which guides our theatrical productions. We nurture artistic growth for adults and kids in a safe environment in which to explore.
Summer Camps
Summertime features youth theatre camps for ages 5-12, led by some of DFW’s top teaching artists with decades of theatre education experience under their belts. With full- and half-day options available, campers can experience various aspects of theatre such as musical theatre, puppetry, or stage acting. Each camp ends in a showcase for friends and family.

Comments from past students:
"In January I took two classes for how to be a working actor at Stage West Theatre and was signed by an agent I wouldn’t have been introduced to otherwise. I then took a class on how to create a character quickly and not only was I cast in a feature I was upgraded to a better role during my audition!!" - Natalie W. (How to have an acting career & Creating Dynamic Characters)
"I feel more confident and less afraid of judgement. I feel prepared for ANY audition." - Ross (Conservatory)
"It was so much fun! Without a doubt I'd recommend it to anyone. I would definitely go again." - Kirsten (Conservatory)
