Nebo Summer Camp on Stage is a immersive experience into acting and theatre production. It is FUN! The students are engaged nearly non-stop with theatre games and activities. They will make new friends, learn acting skills, engage their creativity, increase their confidence and go through all the steps of producing a play from casting to cast party. This camp provides a great intro to theatre or a perfect opportunity to hone blossoming talent.
Each day begins with activities and games to learn and practice skills such as story creation, projecting, stage movement and direction, line delivery and expression, stage business, improvisation and much more. (Fun!) The second part of the time is spent in putting the play together. (Even more Fun!)
