    Announcing the 2024-2025 Show Season!

    **BIG MUSICAL NEWS!** This show will require students grades 5th-12th to fully create our stubborn Iowan world! In addition, we may cast both Winthrop and Amaryllis from Logic School. 

     

     

    **BIG OAP NEWS!** "The Winter's Tale" feels like Shakespeare's Greatest Hits! This tragicomedy is a cautionary play about the damage jealousy can wreak on families and friendships; however, it is also a play about how someone can be redeemed from their mistakes made in jealousy.

     

     

    **BIG PLAY NEWS!** This year, we will be performing at McKinney's historic Cotton Mill, once the world's largest denim manufacturer, and now Dallas-Fort Worth's most unique rustic industrial venue! This intimate setting will require the audience to be up close and personal with the bloody action.

We'll be building our voices, our confidence, and we'll end with a musical theater showcase performance for families featuring every camper. Bring water, snack, and dress comfortably. 

     

     

     

     

    LET'S PLAY: Devising a Play through Stories & Games:
    June 3 - 6; 9:00am – 12:00pm
     
    Based on physical theatre making of Frantic Assembly, students will play, dance, lift, laugh and tumble their way into a play to be presented on Thursday of the camp! A short Google form will be sent to registrants before the camp begins. Come ready to move and create!
