Summer camp in Sussex - 2 days

Summer camp in Sussex

Happy Me Dance is running a musical theatre camp in Forest Row during the summer holidays! If your kids love music, dance and musical theatre, we would love to welcome them in August 2024. Everyone is welcome between the ages of 5-14 years old, so come and learn from the professionals while having fun!

What will the summer school involve?

Our two-day musical theatre summer School will be taking place within the beautiful setting of Michael Hall Steiner School in Forest Row in Sussex.

It is open to all children aged 5-14 years and will involve two fun-packed days learning musical theatre and creative choreography and having fun with like-minded friends. Day 1 will run from 9-3pm with a lunch break from 12-1pm. The final day will involve a performance in the school’s theatre and will run from 9-6pm, with parents and carers invited to watch the final performance.
