Summer Kids Theater Camps

Happening Summer 2026 — Limited Sessions Available

Long before I became a licensed naturopathic physician, my first professional love was theater and costuming. I spent years behind the scenes of many productions—mostly on the technical and creative side. Past projects include running after-school theater programs at a middle school in Denver and a high school in Los Angeles; producing shows at Red Rocks Community College in Lakewood, Colorado; costuming for theaters in Denver and Española, New Mexico; and working in production with Elevate Films in Los Angeles. Much of my résumé centers around youth performers and student artists, which remains my favorite population to create with.

While naturopathic medicine is deeply fulfilling, many of us thrive when we allow more variety, play, and creativity into our lives. Building a stage in my backyard was the first step in bringing the arts back into my daily world (pictured above)—and in creating a local, accessible space for kids to make magic together. I’m thrilled to finally open that space to young performers.

About the Camps

Each session follows the same structure, so students only need to attend one week. Space is limited to 10 students per session for a cozy, creative, high-support environment.

These camps are designed for children ages 5–10, but flexible for slightly younger or older students who are excited and motivated—just reach out if you’re unsure. Kids will need the maturity to practice and learn some lines outside our meeting time (don’t worry, I have lots of strategies to make this fun and doable).

Summer 2026 Camp Dates

• June 29 – July 3, 2026

• July 27 – July 31, 2026

Parents will need to pack a snack, apply/send sunscreen, and send water. During the week, each child will also make a trip with their grown-up to a local thrift store to choose clothing “templates” that we’ll transform into costumes. I’ll provide additional costume pieces, accessories, and props.

This event is happening north of Leota middle school in Woodinville, WA. The cost is $350 and does not include the budget for going to the thrift store with your young performer.
