This summer, we are bringing Aesop's Fables to life! Imagine your little ones stepping into the shoes of classic characters like the speedy hare, the wise tortoise, the clever ant, and the boastful boy who cried wolf! Campers will play theatre games and learn to create characters while preparing a small presentation, narrated by the instructors and acted out by the children. On the last day of camp, there will be a small presentation with simple sets and costumes.

Elle is an outstanding student who actively participates in dance and theater and plays the trombone in the school band. She is also a member of nearly every club at her high school. However, she has a tendency to overextend herself. To win a full scholarship to her college of choice, she must outshine her only competition, Ursula. Unfortunately, Ursula doesn't play fair. Along with her "Squad"—Nora, Cora, and Flora—they have other plans. If you think you know the stories of Sleeping Beauty and Beauty and the Beast, think again. This comedy is packed with both familiar and unfamiliar fairy tale characters, including Sleeping Beauty, the Beast, the Good Fairies, Prince Charmin, King Mackrel, and many more. With plenty of roles for everyone, this captivating adventure promises to be a fun and unique experience.

From climbing beanstalks to confronting giants, our hero Jack has a wealth of adventure stories to share. Some are well-known, like "Jack and the Beanstalk" and "Jack the Giant Killer," while others are less familiar, such as "Jack and the Varmints" and "Jack and the Northwest Wind." These tales are some of the oldest Appalachian folktales passed down through generations of storytellers. There are many variations of these stories, and Bobby has decided to present his versions. During this “One-Week” camp, we will work on our improvisational skills and storytelling to bring these tales to life in a full-blown production.

***NEW THIS SUMMER***
This fast-paced, action-packed, zany comedy filled with a plethora of hilarious characters has fun roles for all. The good guys are really good and the bad guys are really bad. Black Jack and his Hole in the Head gang are determined to take over all of Red Rock. He already owns the Ponderosa, Hickory Farm, and the Hidden Valley Ranch (“How did he even find it?”) He will soon take over possession of the Little House on the Prarie and evict Granny Smith, Truly Sweet, her little daughter (some say possessed) Lulu and Truly’s “not so bright” brother, Chester unless Truly consents to marry Black Jack. Bessie Bates, owner of the Bates Hotel has sent for US Marshall Rory Rogers to come to the rescue while her nephew, Wilbur is out trying to raise the mortgage payment by selling his horse, Ed. Throw in Texas Pete, the Harvey Girls; Betty Cracker, Marfa Stewart, and Little Debbie, and their invisible 6-foot-tall Jackrabbit, an attempted kidnapping, a heroine tied to the railroad tracks, and a villain that will seemingly stop at nothing to get his bride and the action never stops. The audience will cheer the heroes and heroines and boo the villain in this rip-snortin’, rootin’-tootin’ spoof of the old west. Add some old-time western sing-a-long tunes, a square dance, a line dance, and a surprise ending for good measure.
***This updated version includes several NEW musical numbers to add to the fun.***
