drama camp

Acting summer school

Drama camp is a summer program or short-term intensive where young people learn theatrical skills—acting, improvisation, stagecraft.

Participants typically rehearse and perform a production: She's doing drama camp for two weeks in July.

The term occasionally appears in dismissive contexts, implying excessive theatricality or attention-seeking behavior.
