Stagedoor Manor - Camp Life

Stagedoor Campers come from all over America and the World! England, Belgium, Portugal, Greece, Australia...and Florida!

Campers all have one thing in common...STAGEDOOR KIDS LOVE THEATER!!

Living, working, and playing together, they develop friendships and a bond that lasts long after camp. Time spent on stage and in classrooms is also time spent discovering a world of shared interests and support.

The counselors at Stagedoor are over 21 and involved in professional or university theater. No Junior counselors here! With a ratio of 240 campers to 135 staff, supervision is involved and mature.

We are located in the beautiful Catskill Mountains of New York State. Once a former resort hotel, the facilities are far more comfortable than the conventional summer camp. Three to five campers share a carpeted dormitory-style room, which has private bath, twin or bunk beds, full-size closet and dressers.

Our modern, 24-hour Health Center is supervised by a full staff of resident nurses. Beautiful landscaped grounds give the place a campus atmosphere.

Tennis, Volleyball, Basketball, 2 full-size pools (outdoor for hot afternoons, indoor and heated for rainy days and evenings)

Stagedoor offers a wide variety of recreational activities. Sports are non-competitive for those that want to join in.

Evenings are filled with video dance parties, open-mic coffee house, relaxation with friends, outdoor movies, and student-organized games and showcases.


	Healthy selections offered in our air-conditioned dining hall include a fully stocked salad bar, as well as many vegetarian choices. Campers may return to the serving line as often as they wish. For snacks, we offer a canteen filled with a variety of chocolate bars, ice creams, and chips -- not to mention bottled water and fruit bars.
