Misunderstood Monsters: Union and Non-Union, Paid
Misunderstood Monsters: Union and Non-Union, Paid
Summer 2025 is the year of 'Misunderstood Monsters' at Mythik Camps. Ever wondered what the Minotaur does in his downtime? Or where exactly Mothman came from? Is Medusa really a monster, or is she just misunderstood? Join us this summer as we explore the other side of the stories of iconic monsters from cultures around the world.
At Mythik Camps, we provide immersive outdoor summer camp experiences to demigod campers ages 7-14 where we bring ancient stories to life as modern mythical Quest adventures that center our demigod campers as heroes of the story. These Quests are only possible with brave and talented performers like yourself to breathe life into epic characters that guide and challenge our campers every step of the way.

You'll be part of a repertory-style ensemble rotating through different characters and roles in the story throughout the summer.
