There is a definite focus on using naturally-derived materials in the space, and that's brilliant. I had a lovely time chatting with Kelly (proprietor) about all kinds of crafty stuff (so knowledgeable!) and it was instantly clear that she built this place with her heart and with our community in mind. Highly recommend.

My daughter has been attending Camp Broadway camps and activities for the last 3 years in Buffalo,…read moreNY as well as events like Carnegie Hall performances and the Tony Awards. These programs have truly been an excellent opportunity for my daughter to pursue her dream and passion for theater in an environment of other like-minded kids and instructors. And the programs and productions that get put together, choreographed, and performed are just truly amazing. It's been tough to see local community theater productions after watching what Camp Broadway is able to arrange in much shorter periods of time. I like the ensemble nature of the performances as well. The kids are able to learn and perform on equal footing without imbalances in stage time or stress over roles and stage time. And as I mentioned above, it's amazing what these kids are able to do. We're big fans of Camp Broadway - highly recommend if your kids are interested in theater.

My son has done Camp Broadway twice. The first was in person at Buffalo, NY, what an amazing week…read morethat was. He loved every minute and the final performance was so well done. The second was MyMainstage online (the covid version :)). Of course, it's hard to compare these two experiences, because we all just want our young performers to be able to get back to doing what they do in person together, but we thought the online version was very well done, appreciated the time that went into stitching the family showcase together with individual student videos, and we were glad to be a part of it! We will be back for more.
