Theatre Camp
Theatre Production Camp
Throughout the course of this 2-week session, theatre campers work together to produce, rehearse and perform a musical.
We begin each day with a warm-up and game, then spend mornings learning choreography, music, and scenes of the musical. After lunch, campers rotate between outdoor play activities and additional rehearsal time.
This camp does require additional dress rehearsals on Saturday morning of each performance weekend and will have 2 performances. Our daily camp will take place at our Mansfield Arts YMCA at 40 Balcom Street. Location for performances will be announced.
This year we will perform “Beetlejuice Jr.”
Beetlejuice Jr.
The ghost-with-the-most comes to the stage in Beetlejuice JR., the frightfully funny musical based on the beloved motion picture turned Broadway phenomenon. Lydia Deetz is a strange and unusual teenager, still grieving the loss of her mother and obsessed with the whole “being dead thing.” Lucky for Lydia, she and her father move to a new house haunted by a recently deceased couple and Beetlejuice, a delightful demon with a real zest for life. When Lydia calls on Beetlejuice to scare away anyone with a pulse, this double-crossing specter shows his true stripes, unleashing a (Nether)world of pandemonium.

About the Production
Rodger & Hammerstein’s Cinderella is the new Broadway adaptation of the classic musical. This contemporary take on the classic tale features Rodgers and Hammerstein’s most beloved songs, including “In My Own Little Corner,” “Impossible/It’s Possible,’ and “Ten Minutes Ago,” alongside an up to date, hilarious and romantic libretto by Tony Award nominee Douglas Carter Beane.
Originally presented on television in 1957 starring Julie Andrews, Rodgers and Hammerstein’s Cinderella was twice remade for television, first in 1965 for Lesley Ann Warren and again in 1997, featuring Brandy and Whitney Houston. The original Broadway Production of Rodgers and Hammerstein’s Cinderella opened in 2013 and starred Laura Osnes, Santino Fontana, Victoria Clark and Harriet Harris.
