Camp description: 

Is your student brand new to theatre? Or have they been in lots of plays? Either way, this camp is for elementary students who want to explore creativity, imagination, and performance! 

Students will explore character creation, learn stage directions and blocking, learn and project lines, and complete an undersea craft to use in our production of The Rainbow Fish!

About the Play

Everybody loves the international bestseller and award-winning book, The Rainbow Fish, with its wonderful message of friendship and belonging.  This large-cast play features a variety of charming school and sea-creature characters for student performers to explore!

The “denizens of the deep” admire the famous Rainbow Fish, the most beautiful fish in all the ocean.  But when Rainbow Fish refuses to share his/her vibrant, shimmering scales, the whole ocean seems to turn against the vain creature.  Unhappy that no one adores him/her anymore, the Rainbow Fish seeks out the wise Octopus. Octopus helps the young fish learn that it’s far better to be admired for being kind than for being beautiful.
