Reneé Rapp, Megan Hilty, Emily Swallow, Antonio Cipriano and More To Headline The 2nd Musical Theatre Megacamp

Over 30 Broadway and Hollywood guest artists join students from across the globe in the nation's largest virtual musical theatre camp -- the Musical Theatre MEGACAMP!

This initiative comes from a consortium of five award-winning theatre educators (all members of the Freddie G Fellowship), passionate about providing students educational and connection opportunities during the pandemic, while many theatres and camps around the world are shut-down due to health and safety considerations.

Musical Theatre MEGACAMP #2 will take place August 10-14 from 12-4 p.m. (ET) and will allow up to 300 students from around the world, grades 3-12, access to Broadway guest artists and the nation's most accomplished theatre educators. Registered students may audition for the opportunity to be featured as a MEGAStar (camp ambassador) and middle/high school students may audition for a special audition masterclass with Alex Gemignani.

The first Musical Theatre MEGACAMP in June of 2020 featured guest artists such as Freddie Gershon, Gavin Lee, Ari Afsar, Carlos Gonzalez, Lauren Gunderson, Kurt Crowley, and more and included almost 200 students from around the globe. Students were thrilled when Benj Pasek & Justin Paul stopped in for a surprise Q&A on the final day.
