SUMMER

Take Advantage of the Benefits of Summer Theatre Camp!


Enrolling your child in our summer theatre camp is a great way to keep them busy, instill essential life skills, and give them the chance to explore their interests. Our camps are about so much more than learning about the dramatic arts; here are some of the key advantages of enrolling your child in one of our summer children’s theatre programs:


  • Boosts Confidence: Attending acting classes provides campers with the opportunity to freely express themselves, which benefits their emotional and social development. Performing in front of an audience can teach your child to overcome fear and self-doubt, fostering a lifelong sense of confidence.
  • Improves Communication Skills: Acting and performing require your child to develop clear articulation, listening, and presentation skills. Campers learn to express their thoughts and emotions more effectively and gain practical experience in public speaking, which can be helpful in academic and social settings.
  • Fosters Creativity: Theatre is an outstanding creative outlet. Our campers will participate in a variety of creative processes to stimulate imaginative thinking and help them practice problem-solving skills.
  • Encourages Teamwork: Theatre production is a collaborative effort. Children learn the importance of teamwork and cooperation as they work closely with their peers towards a common goal. Understanding how different roles work together and respecting different opinions within a group helps your child learn interpersonal skills.
  • Develops Emotional Intelligence: Acting and performing different roles will require campers to put themselves in someone else’s shoes. Practicing this skill can improve empathy and emotional understanding, helping children easily grasp more complex social and personal issues.
  • Build Lasting Friendships: Our summer theatre camps will encourage your child to spend time with other children who share their interest. The intense collaborative process of putting on a production can forge strong bonds and friendships, many of which last beyond the camp session itself!
  • Encourages Physical Activity: Theatre isn't just about speaking and acting; it often involves movement, dance, and careful coordination. This physical aspect keeps children active and helps improve their motor skills, all while having fun!
  • Provides a Sense of Accomplishment: Putting on a successful production gives our campers a tangible sense of achievement. This accomplishment boosts their self-esteem, shows them the value of hard work, and can motivate them in other challenging aspects of their lives.

Shrek The Musical is a delightfully silly, wonderfully wacky musical perfect for the whole family!


"Once upon a time, there was a little ogre named Shrek...." And thus begins the tale of an unlikely hero who finds himself on a life-changing journey alongside a wisecracking Donkey and a feisty princess who resists her rescue. Throw in a short-tempered bad guy, a cookie with an attitude and over a dozen other fairy tale misfits, and you've got the kind of mess that calls for a real hero. Luckily, there's one on hand... and his name is Shrek.

MORE INFORMATION...


Registration for this show is a little different!


Because we are looking for families to join us for this show, the base rate for one performer under 18 is a registration fee of $550. For any additional sibling under 18, the additional rate is only $100. And adults join free!


And of course, kids, tweens, teens, and adults are welcome to join as individuals! You aren't required to join only as part of a family.


As we did last summer, we hope to have enough performers to double cast this show which means MORE performers with LEAD and FEATURED roles.


While we don't have an official cap on cast size, we will be keeping a close eye on registration and close out the show when we feel we have reached maximum capacity!


After registration, expect follow up emails from us so you can sign up for an audition appointment AND submit your rehearsal conflicts! (We don't expect everyone to be available for all of our rehearsals, so we will build a rehearsal schedule for this show that best fits our cast!)
