JR., A Night at the Museum, and Disney’s Moana JR. Information and registration forms are available online at
www.LTofWS.org or by calling (336) 725-4001.
Alice in Wonderland is a one-week,
non-musical theatre camp for kids ages 5-9. This delightful play adaptation of Lewis Carroll’s famous novel follows
the inquisitive heroine as she chases the White Rabbit, runs interference between Tweedle Dum and Tweedle Dee, befriends the
Mad Hatter, and beats the Queen of Hearts at her own game. What could be better than setting a show in Wonderland?
This camp will run June 15-19 and end with a performance for family and friends on the Mountcastle Theatre stage. Tuition:
$265
Schoolhouse Rock LIVE! JR. is a one-week, musical theatre camp for
kids ages 8-12. Based on the ever-popular, award-winning 1970s cartoons, this fast-paced musical teaches lessons with
clever, catchy tunes (“Just a Bill,” “Interplanet Janet” and “Conjunction Junction,” to
name a few). Tom Mizer, a young teacher, is nervous about his first day of teaching. As he tries to relax, characters
representing various parts of his personality appear and begin a toe-tapping, music-filled lesson to get Tom ready for his
big day. Campers will sing, dance, act, and learn a lot in this fun camp, which runs June 22-26 from 9 am – 4
pm daily. It will end with a performance for family and friends on the Mountcastle Theatre stage. Tuition: $265
Disney’s Moana JR. is a two-week, fully staged musical theatre camp for kids 11-18.
Based on the 2016 animated movie, this thrilling and heartwarming coming-of-age story follows the strong-willed Moana as she
sets sail across the Pacific to save her village and discover the truth about her heritage. With empowering messages of bravery
and selflessness, Moana JR. is sure to bring out the hero within each of us! Moana JR. features all the beloved songs from
the film, written by Tony®, GRAMMY, Emmy, and Pulitzer Prize-winning composer Lin-Manuel Miranda, Opetaia Foa’i,
and Mark Mancina, including “How Far I’ll Go,” “Shiny,” and “You’re Welcome.”
This camp runs July 13-24, from 9 am – 4 pm, and culminates in three public performances on the Mountcastle Theatre
stage (July 24 at 7 pm and July 25 at 2 pm & 7 pm). Tuition: $375
A Night at the Museum is a half-day, one-week, non-musical theatre camp for kids ages 5-7. Campers will pick their own characters
from any time or place in history. Weaving them together into a play, the young actors will work on basic stage techniques,
including projection, blocking, and focus. Join in and see where our travels take us! This camp will run July 27-31
from 9 am – 12:30 pm, ending with a performance for family and friends on the LTWS classroom stage. Tuition: $145
Auditions for Disney’s Moana, Jr., will be held Saturday, June 13, from 10 am –
12 noon at The Little Theatre’s offices at 419 N. Spruce Street. Auditions for Alice in Wonderland, Schoolhouse
Rock LIVE! JR. and A Night at the Museum will be held on the first day of camp.
The Alice in Wonderland, Schoolhouse Rock Live! JR., and Moana JR. camps will be held at Mountcastle Theatre in the Milton
Rhodes Center for the Arts, 251 N. Spruce Street. The A Night at the Museum camp will be held at the Little Theatre offices
at 419 N. Spruce Street. All children and teens are welcome, regardless of ability or experience. Throughout the camps,
