If you’re a parent in Rockwall, Heath, Royse City, or Forney, you know that finding the perfect summer activity can feel like a full-time job. You want something that keeps them active, sparks their creativity, and, most importantly, builds their confidence.
At Rockwall Acting, we’ve spent years crafting a curriculum that does exactly that. Whether your child is a seasoned performer or a total beginner, here are 10 things you should know about our performing arts programs this summer.
1. We Offer a Massive Variety of Classes
From acting and singing to dance, improv, and TV/Film technique, we cover the full spectrum of the performing arts. Our goal is to create well-rounded performers who feel just as comfortable in front of a camera as they do on a Broadway stage.
2. Industry Professional Instructors
Your kids aren't just learning from "hobbyists." Our instructors are industry professionals who bring real-world experience to the studio. They know what it takes to succeed in the business and are passionate about passing that knowledge down to the next generation of Rockwall stars.
3. Full Production Opportunities
We believe the best way to learn is by doing. This summer, students can participate in full-scale productions like our Sound of Music Youth Edition summer musical. Following the success of past shows like Tuck Everlasting and The Little Mermaid JR., we provide a professional-grade theater experience for every cast member.
4. It’s a Massive Confidence Booster
Performing arts education isn't just about "becoming famous." Studies from the American Alliance for Theatre and Education (AATE) show that theater participation significantly improves a child’s self-esteem and public speaking skills. We focus on creating a safe environment where kids feel brave enough to take risks.
5. Weekly Summer Camps for Every Interest
Our 2026 Summer Camps are themed to keep things exciting! Whether your child is obsessed with Moana or Frozen, our weekly camps offer a deep dive into musical theater in a fun, high-energy setting.
6. Technical Summer Intensives
For students looking to level up their skills quickly, our Summer Intensives provide focused, high-level training. These are designed to push performers to their next breakthrough in dance, vocals, or acting technique.
7. We’re Going to Disney World!
Yes, you read that right. Rockwall Acting is heading to Disney World! This unique opportunity allows our students to perform on a world-class stage and experience the magic of professional entertainment firsthand. It’s an experience they’ll remember for the rest of their lives.
8. Academic and Social Growth
Research featured by Americans for the Arts indicates that students involved in the arts are four times more likely to be recognized for academic achievement. Beyond the grades, the social bonds formed during a show like Peter Pan or Beetlejuice JR. create lifelong friendships.
9. Private Lessons for Personalized Growth
Sometimes a group class isn't enough. We offer private lessons in voice and acting to help students tackle specific goals, like preparing for a big audition or mastering a difficult vocal range. Check our schedule to find a time that works for you.
10. Early Bird Pricing is Happening NOW!
We want to make the arts accessible to everyone. If you book your summer spot by April 1st, you can snag Early Bird pricing: camps for just $199 and intensives for $150. These spots fill up fast every year, so don't wait!
