In response to feedback from campers, parents and staff from our first three years of camp, our aim is to have our final week of camp designed for children who are serious about performing arts and/or have a large amount of training/experience. The other five weeks of camp offer introductory level classes. In All-Star Week, we provide intermediate level classes. This week is only accessible by an application and video audition process, and all are welcome to apply. Only selected applications will be accepted to All-Star Week. The application form is available on this website and parents are welcome to reserve a spot in any of the other 5 weeks should their child apply and not be accepted to an All-star Week.

1. Download and fill out the All-Star Application & Registration Form
2. Record a video (2min or less) showcasing your child’s singing, dancing and acting skills.
3. Send the application form and unlisted Youtube or Vimeo video link to: education@rainbowstage.ca


   Subject Line:  All-star Application – CHILD NAME

Yes, please send your child with a healthy lunch each day. A fridge will be available to keep food cool and fresh. Please no peanut products.

Yes, we will have a small assortment of snacks and drinks available for purchase at the camp.

This year, there will be (5) staff at Camp Rainbow to supervise and work with the group of 20 campers each week. Staff will be comprised of adult Rainbow Stage teaching artists, and Rainbow stage affiliated teaching assistants.

Typically, we end each week with a short program and group photo opportunity. Due to current Public Health Orders, we are not planning to have a presentation at the end of each week for family and friends this year. Instead of in person presentations, we will be creating video blogs showcasing highlights from the week of camp that we will share with families after it has been edited.

Lead Instructor – Samantha Hutchings
Song Instructor – Dane Bjornson
Dance Instructor – Alyssa Crockett
Acting Instructor – Ben Townsley
Assistant Instructor – Vinnie Alberto

The camp will run 8:30-4:30, Monday – Friday. There will be an early drop off time at 8:00 and late pick up time of no later than 5:00. For each time your child is picked up after 5:00, there will be $10 charge to cover staff overtime costs.

Camp Rainbow does not have its own bus. The drop off/sign-in location will be in front of the main entrance to the Rainbow Stage theatre in Kildonan Park. If you and your child will be using Winnipeg Transit, routes #18, #32, #38 #77 will get you to the main park entrance, but you will have to walk to the theatre from there (approx. 10 min).

Children of all levels of experience are welcome to attend Camp Rainbow. Camp staff will provide professional training for the campers geared to all levels of ability, but they will also provide other non-theatre related activities such as field games, crafts, and swimming (these activities may vary based on Public Health Orders).

Beginner to Intermediate. Please be sure to list your child’s experience in music, dance and theatre in the space provided on the registration form, in order to help us place them in a group that best suits their level of experience and ability.

Exceptions can be made, based on capacity and level of experience. To make this request, please email education@rainbowstage.ca

The days will be structured. Participants will receive a balanced amount of singing, dancing and acting training combined with summer park and camp type activities, games and fun.

This will be based on Public Health Orders set by the province at the time of camp. In a typical year, campers visit Kildonan Park pool for an afternoon in the mid-week. You will be notified in advance regarding which day once our reservation has been confirmed if we are allowed to bring our campers. On that day your child will need to come to camp with their own bathing suit and towel.

Classes, lessons, games and activities will take place backstage at Rainbow Stage, in the diamond lounge, in the front of house and yes, outdoors in park areas surrounding the stage.

Camp Rainbow instructors and assistants are hired in mid-spring and announced closer to the summer, once all are confirmed. Camp Rainbow has been fortunate to have some of the city’s best young musical theatre artists as instructors and assistants at camp.
