Dani Super is a talent manager and acting coach who has worked in film, television and theatre for three decades.

Camp meets weekdays from 9:00am to 3:00pm, with extended technical and dress rehearsal days on Thursday, July 23 and Friday, July 24. The program culminates in a weekend of fully staged live performances, presented July 24–26, marking the debut production of THE REP! Ensemble.
