As reported by nj.com, The Union County Board of County Commissioners has announced the 2025 Summer Theater Camp Scholarship Program, providing young performers with a free, “high-quality theater experience.”

In partnership with the Union County Performing Arts Center (UCPAC) and Theatrical Artist’s Prep, this year’s program will present Beetlejuice Jr., with specialized camps for ages 8 to 12 and 13 to 18.
