Established in 1955, Harand Camp was one of the nation's first co-ed, residential camps to combine SINGING, DANCING and ACTING with the FUN of traditional camp activities. Located on the campus of Carthage College in Kenosha, WI, Harand offers quality non-competitive musical theater training for campers ages 7 to 18.

Campers attend for 1, 3 or 6 weeks, residing in modern dorms overlooking Lake Michigan. All sessions culminate with amazing musical performances in our beautiful, 400-seat state-of-the-art theater.

History

Report

First established in 1955, Harand Camp's unique method of teaching has helped countless alumni develop poise and confidence. Harand began as a Chicago children's studio founded by sisters Sulie & Pearl Harand. Pearl, a former member of the Chicago Repertory Theatre, taught drama, while Sulie, known for her incomparable one-woman interpretations of classic musicals, taught voice.

Theater

Report

It is our goal for ALL campers to develop skills in the performing arts AND build self-confidence & self-esteem. We welcome all levels of experience and do not require auditions for admission. In preparation for final performances, campers take daily classes in singing, dancing & acting. Occasional rehearsals are held in the evening (alternating with other activities).

Philosophy

Report

While Harand Camp offers an intensive and immersive arts program, we have also been able to set ourselves apart by adhering to a philosophy of inclusion and a non-competitive spirit. We place a premium on social development and uphold the ideals of "No Man is an Island" in everything we do - from camp & cabin unity to our theater program -.

We could not have chosen a better camp for our daughter! Last year my daughter attended Harand for the first time and it as an amazing experience! All I can say is: Harand is a magical place that takes children from every skill level and turns them into stars. The environment is warm and nurturing.
