Broadway Beginners Camp is an exciting camp exclusively for younger students! It’s never too early to act, sing, and dance! Young children love to hear and tell stories. Musical theater is the ultimate form of storytelling, because it uses words, song, and movement to convey narrative.
This 1-week, 1/2 day camp is just perfect for the budding performer in every child! Broadway Beginners Camp can help build self-confidence, and aims to make young children aware of the positive effect that strong communication skills can have on themselves, their peers, and the world.
Campers are introduced to singing, dancing, acting, and all things musical theater, sprinkled with a heavy dose of fun, activities, and stories! There will be a “sharing” of what the students learned at the end of the camp!
Many of our most successful older performing arts students began their Elefante training as Broadway Beginners.

Upright bass, also called string bass or double bass, is a member of the orchestra family. Just as often, however, it appears in jazz, bluegrass, folk, and other genres. With a large hollow body and 4 thick strings, the tones produced by the upright bass are low and rich. The instrument is capable of long, expressive tones when played with a bow; and short, percussive tones when plucked with the strings. String bass is a dynamic and impressive instrument to play!
The oboe is a woodwind and a member of the double-reed family. It is played by blowing air through the reed, attached at the top of the instrument. The reed consists of two very thin pieces of cane, pressed together with a small opening to allow air to pass through. The sound can be high in pitch, but it has a variety of colorful tones, from bright and piercing to low and mysterious.
