Program Overview
Our programs are designed to be performance based, and taught by industry professionals. Throughout each program, students will learn audition techniques, rehearsal processes, acting techniques, singing techniques & dance. Along with discovering their journey as an actor, students will have the opportunity to participate in technical elements of their show if they wish. At the conclusion of program, students will have a weekend of performances.
We hope you join us for a summer of fun!
Show Overview
With an infectiously unforgettable score from four-time Grammy winner, three-time Oscar winner and musical theatre giant, Stephen Schwartz, Pippin is the story of one young man's journey to be extraordinary. Winner of four 2013 Tony Awards including Best Musical Revival, this updated circus-inspired version of Pippin continues to captivate and appeal to the young at heart throughout the world.
Heir to the Frankish throne, the young prince Pippin is in search of the secret to true happiness and fulfillment. He seeks it in the glories of the battlefield, the temptations of the flesh and the intrigues of political power (after disposing of his father, King
Charlemagne the Great). In the end, though, Pippin finds that happiness lies not in extraordinary endeavors, but rather in the unextraordinary moments that happen every day.

Showcase Information
We are a noncompetitive camp, which means you do not have to audition to be part of our program. However students do audition for roles in the shows they are participating in. We do practice auditions before they actually audition, so not to worry we will make sure they are as prepared as possible for their audition while teaching them audition techniques!
Every student is in the show.
