Theater kids everywhere, prepare to feel seen.
The first trailer for Theater Camp is here and it perfectly captures the experience of growing up as a teen thespian. It doesn’t matter if you never got the chance to go to theater camp, you’ll instantly feel right at home while watching the hilarious preview.
From Molly Gordon and Nick Lieberman in their feature directorial debut, Theater Camp stars Gordon, Ben Platt, Ayo Edebiri, Jimmy Tatro, Noah Galvin, and Amy Sedaris.
The mockumentary follows a scrappy kids theater camp in upstate New York called AdirondACTS, and all the creative, passionate, and slightly unhinged characters who flock there every summer.
From a narc snitching on an unsanctioned piercing ring to a cue for cocaine (a.k.a. white feather boas) during a kids’ production to stolen CBD gummies, Theater Camp has it all. It may seem like fun and games, but it’s not. “It’s art,” says Edebiri’s Janet Walch.
Curtains rise on Theater Camp in theaters July 14.
