Youth Stagecraft Camp
Stagecraft Camp (rising 5th grade to rising 12th grade) 150 hrs. During two weeks of our Performing Arts Camp, Heather Summers and Tabatha Ferrell will gather the most important members of any production. The folks who make it all happen. Join in to learn planning, set design and building, backstage management, stage set and strike, running crew, team building, lights and sound, and final production. Everyone has a place in our Friday and Saturday performances. Our whole company will make this a brilliant production. 8:00 am – noon Mon.- Fri. July 14 – July 25.
Youth Visual Arts Camp
Visual Arts Camp (rising 2nd to 5th & rising 5th grade to rising 12th grade). This is going to be a busy week if only because visual arts encompass so many skills. Also, to be a good visual artist, young folks need to understand aspects of science, technology, production skills, environmental awareness, scale, and proportion. So, while we explore various media such as drawing and painting, we will also expand our view of the world! A special project will be a team effort of producing a bottle cap mosaic. At the end of class, we will hang our mosaic in a place for all to appreciate. Students who enroll in Stagecraft will enjoy lunch and then spend the afternoon in this class. (2nd to 5th) 8:00 am – 5:30 pm (5th to 12th) 1:00 pm – 5:30 pm Mon.- Fri. July 14-July 25
Youth Performing Arts Camp
Performing Arts Camp (rising 5th grade to rising 12th grade) Are you interested in learning about the theater and all the many ways one can participate? In this camp we will explore performing techniques as we prepare to stage a performance. Young actors will learn audition skills, stage presence, acting techniques, vocal projection, showmanship, stage movement, stage combat, blocking, directions, script reading and analysis, communication skills, and teamwork. Lead by Savannah Wolf, we will be well rehearsed. On Friday, August 1 at 6 PM and Saturday, August 2 at 2 PM & 6 PM, everyone is invited to the play on stage — star-studded performances! 8:00 am-5:30 pm Mon.-Fri. July 14-Aug. 2
