Abbi is excited to go to camp every morning and can’t wait to tell us about her day when I pick her up! Such a refreshing change from the traditional camp experience. I can see that this program is artistically enriching for all age levels, a self confidence builder, educational and at the same time loads of fun, with making crafts, games and the rehearsals! I love that the children are a part of this production from the ground up!

Hi Jennifer. I just wanted to tell you that Elizabeth is super excited for summer camp. When I told her the two plays, she was so happy, and when I reminded her last night that today was registration, her eyes lit up, and she said it was her "5th favorite day of the year". I assumed she meant after Christmas, her birthday, and some other holidays, but she said, "No, camp is way better than Christmas. My favorite days are 1) the first summer camp performance, 2) the second camp performance, 3) the first day of the first session of camp, 4) the first day of the second session of camp, and 5) camp registration day!" I just thought you'd like to know how much she LOVES camp! 🙂Thanks,KristinParent

Fairfield Performing Arts Studio has been a huge part of my life for five years. The three weeks of camp is always the highlight of my summer. Thanks to this camp, my acting, singing, and dance has improved dramatically, and the way the counselors teach keep all of us wanting to learn even more. I think I can speak for all the campers when I say this camp is an amazing opportunity to have a taste of acting on a professional stage. As soon as my first year there was over, I knew I'd want to keep returning. All the learning aside, it's also a friendly environment where everyone feels comfortable. I've made some incredible friends that are still returning to camp with me to this day. All in all, FPAS is an educational but fun experience that every new (or returning) actor/actress should try.

Walking into Fairfield Performing Arts Studio summer camp every June is a moment I look forward to all year. Jennifer's lessons in acting, singing and dancing not only made me a well- rounded performer with skills in every aspect of musical theatre, but also allowed me to grow as a person and meet many lifelong friends. Jen's trust in me with many difficult roles and her guidance in helping me execute them while still creating a wonderful camp experience and has made my three years at her summer camp an unforgettable experience!
