Greenwood-based Taproot Theatre Company is expanding its acting classes in Ballard this summer by hosting a large number of its summer acting daycamps at the Ballard Church, located just off 15th Northwest and Northwest 73rd.

Taproot Theatre’s Acting Studio will offer a wide variety of camps for ages 4 to 17 June 22 through Sept. 3, from Shakespeare and musical theatre to the art of comedy and acting for the camera.

“We’re excited for this opportunity to bring more of our classes to the heart of Ballard, one of our neighboring communities,” said Sara Willy, Taproot Theatre’s education director. “Ballard is a rich and vibrant area, family-friendly, and the facilities at Ballard Church will allow us to easily serve them, and our students from other areas.”

Twelve of Taproot Theatre’s Acting Studio’s 18 summer daycamps will meet at Ballard Church, located at 1460 N.W. 73rd St. Those include Creative Dramatics Daycamp and Creative Dramatics Jr. Daycamp, which will be offered weekly (excluding the weeks of June 29 and August 31) with different themes each session.

The Ballard Church is accessible by bus on King County Metro Transit’s Route 15. Additional camps will meet at Taproot Theatre, at 204 N. 85th St., accessible from several bus routes, including Route 48.
