About
Bunce Performing Arts Summer Theater Camps focus on learning musical theater songs, practicing fun choreography, and playing interactive theater games. Campers rehearse and perform on a real stage while staff teach songs, choreography, and dialogue.
• Ages: 6–14 years old
• Schedule: Camp is held the week following the completion of the District 279 school year.
• Price: This engaging Maple Grove theater camp costs just $125.
Each session is led by talented local directors with backgrounds in theater and education, and rehearsals are run by experienced theater professionals. The camp is directed by professional theater and music directors along with a group of energetic counselors. Bunce Performing Arts hosts an affordable summer theater camp each year in Maple Grove for students ages 6–11 or those entering grades 1–5, and also offers summer camp for middle school students entering grades 6 through 9. Registration for each camp begins March 1 and is limited to 50 campers or students, and all middle school students must be pre-registered before the first rehearsal. All students receive a part in the musical, and Bunce Summer Camp now serves up to 70 students each summer in two camps, one for elementary-aged kids and one for middle and high school participants.
Bunce Performing Arts has been engaging and entertaining the northwest suburban Twin Cities area since 2007, starting with a backyard performance of Oliver that brought 450 people. The organization was run by the Bunce family with help from friends until Bunce Backyard Productions was formed in 2012, and it was rebranded as Bunce Performing Arts in 2020. Bunce Summer Camp launched in 2015, and The BEAT, the newest addition, began in 2019. As a faith-based organization, Bunce Performing Arts incorporates biblical principles into its programming, and brief prayers are included during camp with participation completely voluntary.
Bunce Performing Arts states that it tells stories of hope and encouragement to the communities it serves and offers access to theatrical opportunities to people of all ages through affordable, high-quality theatre productions. It also states that it cultivates the development, education, and advancement of performers and leadership teams with artists from all levels of experience. Summer camp for middle school students is offered through the District 279 Community Education Department. The BEAT partners with Osseo Area Schools Community Education to offer after-school musical theater experiences to students in elementary and middle school, including students at Cedar Island, Fernbrook, Osseo Middle School, and Maple Grove Middle School. Bunce Performing Arts offers a free outdoor musical theater production in the summer and affordable indoor theater opportunities throughout the year, along with reasonably priced summer theater camps and after-school musical theater programs.
