Step into the spotlight, the stage awaits!

Camp StarQuest is a four-week Musical Theater and Performing Arts Intensive that teaches the fundamentals of theater, voice, music, and dance – all in the process of creating a fully staged production of a hit musical. Join us as we fuse a traditional summer camp philosophy with a top-notch mindfulness based performing arts program designed to keep our campers invigorated, engaged, challenged, and happy! Students will have access to professional lighting, sound and dressing rooms in our state-of-the-art theater.

We do not swim at Camp StarQuest. We are too busy acting, singing and dancing. Campers can use the pool daily after camp or during the weekends!

Cool things happening this summer!

Our specialty staff is made up of theater professionals, from DFW to Broadway, ready to ensure our campers shine from the inside out.
