CBT’s Summer Youth Arts Camp began in 1991 to provide the children in Milwaukee with an opportunity to experience intensive dance training. What began that first summer, with only two instructors and 20 students, has developed into a six-week program for children ages 6-17 with a staff of 8 part-time dancers, actors, and musicians.

NEW!! Mini-Camp for ages 5-7 years. June 18 - 22, 2007
Up to 60 participants start their day at 9:00 a.m. in the Milwaukee Repertory Theatre’s rehearsal halls and at CBT's Studios. The two morning classes consist of ballet, modern, jazz, and African dance. After lunch, the children participate in visual arts, theater, and musical theater instruction. The day concludes at 5:00 p.m. The summer also consists of field trips and special Friday lunches. The program culminates with a final performance where the
children display the skills they worked on over the course of the summer. The
Wednesday matinee performance is reserved for students from other summer camps
and
VIP’s. The Thursday evening show is an opportunity for
students to make improvements on their first performance. This performance is
open to the public and all families and friends. The Camp prides itself in its high levels of discipline. Students are very physically and mentally active during the course of every day. CBT receives comments on a regular basis from field trip locations on the good behavior of our students. Parents comment on how their very shy child is more outspoken and they can’t believe what their child performed in the final show. Academic school teachers comment on how the children become more interactive in class. CBT can see that students walk through the doors with more confidence in their abilities and pride in themselves as individuals as the summer progresses. Comments from past Camp parents
The summer of 2006, CBT added a one-week mini-camp for ages 5-7 to serve younger students in the Milwaukee community. The original 6-week camp is a very intensive program. This one-week mini-camp is geared towards younger children to JUST HAVE FUN learning and utilizing the performing arts!
