This camp for teens will dive into Shakespeare's characters and language. This is great for artists who may have a particular interest in public speaking or performing of any kind, as we will practice many of the special skills that help build a strong performance. We'll practice confidence-building exercises, intermediate theater skills, teamwork, and will present a showcase at the end of the week.

At this theater camp, we will focus each day on a different aspect of theater and performance. With a healthy emphasis on PLAYING and GAMES, campers will stretch their artist chops with introductions to improv, Shakespeare, poetry, stage combat, technical theater, and more! Theater is a team sport, and the week will end with a performance celebrating the campers favorite parts of the week.

This camp is all about stretching our creativity! From crafting, writing poetry, building characters, and designing costumes, there will be no shortage of new ideas born this week! Campers will learn each day about a different Shakespeare play and will use that for inspiration for the day's activities.
