Younger Actors
I WANT TO AUDITION, BUT I'M TOO YOUNG. ARE THERE ANY SUMMER THEATER PROGRAMS AVAILABLE FOR SOMEONE MY AGE?If you're under 18 you're unable to audition at StrawHat. However, there are a number of youth-oriented theater camps that you might want to check out. Since we are located on the East Coast, we've focused primarily on this section of the country. But we've also included some other links that might be useful if you're seeking something in other parts of the USA. Please note that this list does not represent any endorsement by StrawHat and that you should do your research to find the right organization for you. Happy searching!
