Columbia Gorge School of Theatre Information

For more than 20 years, the Columbia Gorge School of Theatre (CGST) has prided itself on providing a safe, supportive environment free of criticism and full of fun, support, and love, as well as a rigorous theatre training program helping students gain a sense of community, improve communication skills, and raise self-esteem. Every summer, we run a full-time sleep away and daytime performing arts camp for youth of all ages from around the world who can't get enough theatre. We use our multi-talented and extensively trained staff as well as the beautiful facilities provided to us by Lewis and Clark College in Portland, Oregon to create the structure of a professional training ground with curriculum meant to challenge our kids to become better artists and people, preparing them for the bright lights of the stage of the world.
