Craig Mathieson Sydney Morning Herald Mostly improvised, it’s an amusing celebration of community seen through a song and dance lens as the chaotic but devoted staff at a summer camp instruct their dedicated young charges, ignore their own failings, and make sure that several shows go on. Rated: 3.5/5 Dec 21, 2023 Full Review Dana Stevens Slate Achieves the rare trick of creating a fictional work-within-the-work that is supposed to be really good, and actually is. Dec 13, 2023 Full Review Sandra Hall Sydney Morning Herald The cast makes up such an effective ensemble that it’s hardly fair to single out individuals, but Noah Galvin is wonderful as the harried and ever-resourceful stage manager who has yet to experience the luxury of sitting down. Rated: 4/5 Sep 7, 2023 Full Review Matt Pais MattPais.com Mostly amusing and packing a couple good laughs, “Theater Camp” is neither the riot it might have been nor a total misfire. Rated: B- Jul 1, 2024 Full Review Avaryl Halley Movie Bitches It is so incredibly accurate its frightening Apr 24, 2024 Full Review Andrew Galdi Movie Bitches The last number is so iconic its going to be a theater kids identity Apr 24, 2024 Full Review Read all reviews

Angelica I did not enjoy the movie. I only liked the parts of some of the kids singing. This is pure comedy and silly in almost every scene. Also the cinematographer (shot in the style if The Office) annoyed me. If you enjoy this type of comedy it may be for you but it just wasn't for me. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 08/28/23 Full Review Alex If you have ever been involved in theatre this is a must watch! Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 08/26/23 Full Review Eva Diva So funny, sweet!!! A great story-stellar acting with many fab characters!!! See it!! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 08/21/23 Full Review Lena The movie was laugh out loud funny, although I would have liked for there to have been more character development of the theatre students. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 08/16/23 Full Review Charles D I laughed harder at this movie than any other this year Rated 5 out of 5 stars 08/16/23 Full Review Kevin Absolutely incredible! I can’t wait to watch it again Rated 5 out of 5 stars 08/16/23 Full Review Read all reviews
