Summer Camp 2023 has a new format,
and it's more fun than ever!

For students who wish to participate, we will be creating a fully staged production, Scapino!  This will include morning workshops AND afternoon rehearsals.  

Or ... students may also opt for ONLY morning workshops.  

Please read the descriptions, below, which we hope will answer some of your very good questions!

SCAPINO! and MORNING WORKSHOPS
Scapino! is a 1974 play adapted by Jim Dale and Frank Dunlop from Les Fourberies de Scapin (The Trickeries of Scapin) by Moliere. The play is set in 1970s, Naples, and uses a variety of British and traditional comic styles. The deceitful valet Scapino contrives to bring his master’s children of two sons and two daughters and their various loves together through all kinds of trickery - despite his master’s own plans for them.

Our fully staged production will feature modern language, tap dance, vocal music, feats of comedy, as well as a complete set, light and costume design.

Two public performances will cap students’ summer experience.

Students who enroll in full day summer camp will receive information about how to submit a short video for casting purposes, in mid-May. ** Students cast in Scapino! are expected to make a commitment to the production by memorizing lines and making every effort to attend camp daily. Missing camp days may necessitate a change in casting.

MORNING WORKSHOPS ONLY
Students who may prefer focused work on technique or a SHORTER DAY may join our morning classes, where  dance, stage combat, basic mime and clowning, comic acting technique and more will be taught in a studio setting. Morning classes will be rigorous and fun, preparing all students for future stage work and, specifically, for those cast in the production of Scapino!

** As the summer camp develops, daily plans can evolve based on enrollment and other issues. We will always do our best to abide by daily start and finish times.
