Orlando Family Stage Unveils 2026 Summer Camps And New Central Florida Locations
The youth theatre organization will expand programming with additional camp sites and returning partnerships.
Orlando Family Stage will offer an expanded slate of Summer Camps in 2026, with programming taking place across multiple locations throughout Central Florida. The organization will introduce new camp sites at Lake Nona Performance Club and Florida Technical College, alongside returning locations in Orlando, The Villages, and at the University of Central Florida.
The 2026 summer season will include more than 70 weeklong camps serving students from preschool through high school. Camp offerings will cover a range of theatre disciplines, including acting, musical performance, puppetry, costuming, on-camera work, and technical skills. Extended care will be available at select locations.
“By expanding our Orlando Family Stage summer camps across Central Florida, we're creating more spaces for kids to spend their summer exploring who they are, building bravery, and experiencing the joy of theatre,” said Jenn Adams-Carrasquillo. “I'm proud that our camps are in such high demand, but more so that families see them as safe, inclusive spaces where kids can create, connect, and truly belong.”
Arts education remains central to Orlando Family Stage’s programming, with camps designed by theatre educators and teaching artists. The organization will continue its longstanding partnership with the University of Central Florida, which supports training opportunities for graduate students and helps extend access to theatre education across the region.
