What happens at camp?

We offer an experience that builds creativity, confidence, and friendships. At Act One, campers develop foundational skills in storytelling and theatre using classic award-winning children’s books. Campers bring these stories to life in celebratory performances on the last day of camp. In class rotations such as Acting, Movement, Voice, and Stagecraft, they apply new skills to their upcoming performances. These performances demonstrate what we teach throughout the week in an engaging way for parents and friends.​

Stagecraft 

Using recycled materials, campers will create their own costumes and props for their end-of- camp performances. This class will put their creativity and crafting skills to use while they learn the fundamentals of design.

Movement Class

Campers will learn how to tell stories through movement. Using games and guided exercises, they will explore shape, tempo, levels, and gait to find characters within their movement.

Acting Class

This class will explore several different aspects of performance. Campers will partake in exercises that teach the importance of ensemble, making bold creative choices on stage, and trusting their creative instincts. Campers will also learn to take direction in a rehearsal setting, memorize short lines, and blocking as they prepare for their end- of-camp performances.
