Synetic has recently received a $10,000 award from the George Preston Marshall Fund to provide scholarships to our summer programs, both our summer camps and the Teen Conservatory. We are thrilled to provide need-based scholarships for physical theater education to students who cannot otherwise afford to attend camps.

Synetic Theater’s award-winning physical theater company brings its signature blend of movement, storytelling, and creativity to young artists ages 7-13 in ten one-week, fun-filled, repeatable sessions. No previous experience is required—just curiosity, energy, and a willingness to leap into the fun.
At Synetic, every child is a storyteller. Through dance, pantomime, stage movement, ensemble games, and world-building activities, campers learn to express themselves using their bodies, voices, and imaginations. Synetic’s experienced teaching artists guide students through an immersive process that builds confidence, collaboration skills, and creative problem-solving—all while having a blast.
Each session ends with a showcase where campers proudly share their original work with family and friends.
We hope you join us for camp this summer! For further scholarship, registration, or general information, please email [email protected] directly.
