Marquette – Lake Superior Theatre is accepting student enrollments for its Drama and Dreams Playscape Summer Camp. Camp will be meet from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. Monday through Thursday, August 16 through 19 in the Peter White Public Library community room.
The event will culminate in a live evening performance for family and friends on Thursday, August 19. An optional final session/award celebration for students will be on Friday morning, August 20. Children with special needs are particularly encouraged to enroll.
The camp is designed to help children work on socialization and communication skills as they learn about theatre, costume and set design, stage makeup, facial expression, voice projection, team building and leadership. Students will sing, tell stories, read poetry and develop a live performance in a fun, safe, creative environment. Camp directors are Rob Shirlin and Monica Nordeen.
Cost of $40 includes a T-shirt to be worn during the final performance. Need-based scholarships are available.
For information, to enroll a child or to volunteer at the camp, call the Marquette Arts and Culture Center at 228-0472 or e-mail arts@mqtcty.org. The camp cannot accommodate children who are not toilet-trained or who require administration of medication during camp hours. However, parents are welcome to send an individual aide to camp with children requiring these additional services.
