Summer Opera Theater Camp
This year Cimarron Opera Camp will present Patience by Gilbert and Sullivan.
Opera Camp is open to youth 8-18 of all skill levels. Cimarron Opera Camp is known as one of the best intensive youth arts experiences in the state of Oklahoma. The 3-week camp provides vocal instruction, dance and acting basics, audition preparation, plus a lot of friendship, teamwork and fun! The camp then concludes with fully staged performances of an operetta for family and friends to enjoy.

Auditions:
Auditions will be scheduled on an individual basis to best accommodate each camper’s availability. After completing the registration form, our team will be in touch to arrange an audition time that works for you.
For the audition, prepare one piece of music. Campers may be asked to read part of a scene during their audition. If campers do not have a piece prepared they are welcome to sing any song they know such as Happy Birthday or a hymn. If you have questions about appropriate audition repertoire please contact Alex Johnson at alex@cimarronopera.org.
Though we strongly encourage campers to sing an audition for our staff, it is not required to enroll in camp. Auditions are for our staff to hear where each camper is skill-wise. Roles are not cast until the first week of camp.
To register for camp, please complete the registration form here.
Once registered, we will follow up with next steps, including scheduling an audition time.
Camp tuition is $500 for one camper. For each additional camper tuition is $400. Both partial and full need-based scholarships are available.
If you have any questions or concerns, please contact Alex Johnson at alex@cimarronopera.org.
