Kids and teens between the ages of 9-16 of all experience levels are welcome and encouraged to join our three-week camp that offers a high-energy, engaging, and memorable summer camp experience! We know they'll walk away having built a new repertoire of performance skills.
Does your child/teen already have A LOT of theatrical experience? WONDERFUL! This camp is the perfect opportunity for those with experience to continue their theater journey and challenge them to step beyond their current experience and expand their knowledge through deeper character study and development to enhance their acting, learning vocal harmonies within the plethora of songs this musical incorporates, and further their dance training.
Would this be your child's/teen's FIRST experience being in a musical? AWESOME! Those campers who are at the beginning of their theatrical journey will learn all the basics of acting, singing, and dancing and be mentored by our incredible interns. They are sure to learn a ton and thoroughly enjoy the experience.
All summer camp enrollees will experience the entire production process from auditions to performance.
Auditions will take place on the first day of camp and casting will follow. There are roles for everyone and plenty of acting, singing, and dancing for all throughout this musical.
Throughout the rehearsal process campers will work on musical theater basics, character development, improvisation, stage movement, singing, and dancing. Some singing experience (school music class, school choir, prior musical theater experience) is very helpful, but not required.
Summer Theater Camp culminates in a 60-70 minute ticketed production open to family and friends to attend. With songs, dances, and high-energy material great for performers of all ages, Seussical JR is sure to be an unforgettable experience!
Director/Choreographer: Patti Punzi
Director/Musical Director: Peter Punzi
**We will also have at least 2-3 interns to assist the directors throughout the three weeks of camp. Interns will also become stage crew for the performance and participate in the show itself as additional ensemble. Our lead interns are young people who have years of experience doing theater and currently pursuing theater arts in college.**
