Summer Camp Session #2 – 2014

Event Phone: (203) 610-5882

A full-scale performance, drama training, and drama games are the primary components of the FPAS Summer Camp.  These components are incorporated into each camp day.  The camp provides a physically and emotionally safe environment to provide optimal conditions for growth and learning as both an actor and a person all while having a fun, exciting and inspirational experience.  The campers are grouped by age and when not preparing for the performance rotate from one training class to another.

The classes and rehearsals provide training in  ACTING, DANCING, IMPROVISATION, STAGE MAKEUP, SINGING, SET DESIGN AND CONSTRUCTION, & MUSICAL THEATER!   Preparation and rehearsal for the performance begin in the first few days.  Rehearsal time expands as the camp progresses.  Drama games are incorporated within the training and rehearsal sessions.

Jennifer Kenny leads and directs the camp instruction and the performance and is assisted by a staff trained in acting, singing, dancing and music.  Each day includes morning snack break and a midday lunch break.  At the end of three weeks, audiences will be delighted with the campers’ performances.

Open for children entering grades 2-11 in the Fall of 2014.
