Actor’s Professional Theatre Conservatory

In the spring of 2008, we were given the opportunity to start a “summer camp” for the Allenberry Playhouse in Boiling Springs, Pennsylvania. After months of planning, we founded Actor's Professional Theatre Conservatory (APTC). Little did we know that this one week "summer camp" would soon grow into a year round program offering TYA productions of fairy tales with modern twists, a day camp for young artists ages 8-12, (2) one-week long over night camps for ages 12- 15 and a two week summer intensive for young artists 13-18 which would culminate with a full length Shakespeare production and a full length musical. At APTC we truly believed that through the performing arts we can enrich and enhance the lives of others...One Young Artist at a Time. We could speak at length about how developing APTC has impacted our lives, but we feel the young artists can do a better job…

"I remember one of the last days, lying in the studio and looking at the ceiling and thinking “don’t you dare forget this. You live every single second of this, and love it with all your heart, and don’t you DARE forget it. “ Looking at councilors with amps in their hands and bags under their eyes and smiles on their faces because they are mind-body-and-soul in LOVE with the art of people. It’s not about camp - it’s about people. It’s about the fact that I can’t describe, really REALLY describe, to anybody what camp was like for me. But there are 36 people who know exactly what I’m talking about, and that’s pretty beautiful." ​-Rebecca M. 14

"I’ve always heard the sayings like, “You’ve got one life, Live it to the fullest” or anything else. But that’s one of the things that I got from APTC. I literally do not go a DAY without remotely thinking of APTC" -Madi Y. 13

​" APTC changed the way I thought about theatre because the first thing I thought was “I am going to learn songs, dances and lines and then perform them.” With APTC, I learned there was more than that. We learned character building, acting exercises, vocal exercises, and much more! When I hear about auditions or shows for something with APTC, I automatically want to be involved." -Carly L. 14
