Only 1 left!The Adventures of Stuart Little
$175.00Select optionsMain Themes: friendship, loyalty, adventure, and the importance of acceptance
This is the endearing classic about a mouse named Stuart who is born into an ordinary New York family. All the charm, wisdom and joy of the E.B. White original are captured in this adaptation by Joseph Robinette, who also dramatized the highly acclaimed stage version of Charlotte's Web. The many adventures—both big and small—of Stuart Little are brought vividly to life in this story-theatre presentation. The acting ensemble plays many human and animal roles in a series of delightful scenes that make up the marvelous maneuverings of a mild-mannered mouse trying to survive in a "real people's world." Ease of staging along with flexible casting makes Stuart Little perfect for small touring groups. One of the primary goals for this camp is to give each student the opportunity to play multiple roles and explore a range of characters, and Stuart Little is the perfect fit for that. Almost everyone in the cast will get to portray at least four different characters, providing a fun and dynamic experience. 8 spots. Roles will be assigned the first day after participating in a readthrough. -

Sold OutFantastic Mr. Fox
$175.00Select optionsReadthrough: 6/9 6pm-8pm
Main Themes: Class struggle, Identity, Importance of family, Community Genre: Comedy "Boggis and Bunce and Bean/One fat, one short, one lean/These horrible crooks/So different in looks/Were nonetheless equally mean." And so begins another enchanting Roald Dahl tale concerning the extraordinary adventures of three nasty farmers, two curious creatures, a family of foxes, and our hero—a most fantastic fellow! Your audience will be fascinated as they watch Boggis, the (enormously fat!) chicken farmer; Bunce, the (pot-bellied dwarf) duck-and-goose farmer; and Bean the (thin) turkey-and-apple farmer, attempt to foil the efforts of Mr. Fox and his friends—the Badgers, the Moles, the Rabbits and the Weasels. And then, of course, they'll be held in suspense as the animals unwittingly trap themselves in Bean's Secret Cider Cellar—much to the displeasure of Rat (a rude creature) and all appear doomed. In the end, they'll cheer as Mr. Fox provides a glorious feast for each and every one—and gives rise to Mrs. Fox's proclamation that "My husband is one fantastic fox!" Certainly this show is lively and suspenseful and we're sure you will also find it a whole lot of fun! Your student must bring their lunch every day. Shows will be on 6/27 at 7pm and 6/28 at 10am. 13 spots available.
