School Edition
The School Edition of SWEENY TODD is a less graphic version of the popular movie. We’ll use some fun, unusual lighting to portray this historic story. Joanie and Scott Beyette, who have children of their own, will be administrating and directing the camps again this year.

Hello theatre students and parents:
It’s time to think about summer camp ! Thanks for considering our program. BDTAcademy is a non-profit corporation operating at the Boulder’s Dinner Theatre. We are fortunate to have several of the BDT actors and technicians on faculty. Now in our sixth year, we have learned from previous campers’ suggestions and have added some new things to this year’s camp. Check out the choices of elective classes!
Summer camp at BDTAcademy serves middle and high school students and includes drama instruction, auditioning, rehearsing, and performing – on the BDT stage. This year, we are excited to offer the School Edition of “ Sweeny Todd“ as our summer camp production !
