This is a well run camp. We are very satisfied with our experience at Stages.
The team that put on this show was incredible.
Great job by all. Stages runs like a well-oiled machine with a lot of compassion and heart
Stages has given my children so many amazing memories and they will continue to return to do amazing shows with you.
We had a wonderful experience! We are already seeing if we can swing doing an audition and definitely something over next summer.
Always impressed by what the creative team is able to accomplish with the children in such a short amount of time!
