“Last year auditions from all over the world poured in from incredible students who are looking to expand their performing arts talents with some of the most renowned theatrical experts from across the nation,” said Kim Vento, director of the Broken Arrow Performing Arts Center. “Each year, the camp just gets bigger and better, and this year will be no exception. I encourage anyone who has a heart for musical theatre to apply.”

And I can promise you that is what we are going to do once again at camp this summer. We are going to inspire ourselves, inspire each other, and inspire others to be better.”
