Service Description

This camp is for campers who would like to focus on backstage crew aspects of theater, from Pre-k - 7th grade. Every Backstage camper will receive a script and learn the backstage functions and mechanics of the stage and house. Our 2-week Arts Summer Camp combines fun and educational “majors” and “electives” into a 30-minute musical theater production. The Mind Steward team creatively weaves every class into the musical theater production. Robotics creations are projected onstage as characters, gymnastics students catapult onto the scene as animals, instrumental music students play in the orchestra, and the list goes on. This year’s production is Seussical Kids! ELECTIVE OFFERINGS: The following electives will be available to customize your schedule.
