Arts Smarts 2024 – Week 2: THEATRE Afternoon Session – Grades 3-5
5,6,7,8: A Chorus Line
Dance 10 looks amazing!!!!! In this camp, students will get the opportunity to explore one aspect of being a triple threat on the stage: movement. Campers will engage in learning different movement combinations from Broadway shows. Campers will also have the opportunity to choreograph a short dance routine of their own for presentation at the end of the week. This camp will encourage the camper to explore their inner Bob Fosse, Jerome Robbins, or Susan Stroman through movement.
Campers can register for morning sessions from 9:00 AM – 12:00 PM, afternoon sessions from 1:00 PM – 4:00 PM, or both! (For those staying all day, there is a supervised lunch period. Lunches must be brought to camp and will be refrigerated.) Morning and afternoon snacks are provided. Both mornings and afternoons feature a “Common Hour” in which all campers join together for a large group creative multi-disciplinary activity. On Fridays of both weeks, there are morning and afternoon performance showcases and art exhibits for families and friends featuring the campers’ work of each week. Drop-off and pick-up at the Ware Center is supervised by the staff. Registration deadline is May 17, 2024.
