Lemondrops Summer Theatre Camp – 2018

For the sixth year in a row, Lemon Bay Playhouse will host the Lemondrops Summer Theatre Camp for Children from ages eight through fourteen. If a child is over fourteen years of age and they attended one of our previous camps they will be accepted into this year’s camp. The three-week camp, taught by Cheryl Hastings, will include activities such as improvisation, theater games, body movement, blocking, tongue twisters, and arts and crafts. There will also be rehearsals for the 45 minute performance of the play, “The Land of Arbour”, written by Cheryl. The play takes place in the Medieval Times in which a Queen, a Wizard, soldiers and dragons live in peace, love and harmony. All students will have an opportunity perform in the show.

The camp will run from 9:00am to noon, Monday to Friday from July 9 through July 27, 2018. The class ends with two evening performances on Friday, July 27 and Saturday, July 28. The performances are for the student’s family members. The cost for the camp is $210. The class will be limited to 21 students.
