Comedy Production Camp: Back to the 80’s

Welcome to our Theatre Production class! Through this class, we will be learning the basics of theatre production. We will also be exploring the various elements of staging, such as blocking, choreography, and lighting. The class will end on July 20th with a full comedy production of Back to the 80’s  for our friends and family to enjoy. Hold on to your hoverboards, we’re taking a trip Back to the 80s! When modern teen Mary Fitzfry gets sent back in time by an eccentric professor, she finds herself in the middle of a totally tubular cavalcade of 80s pop culture. There’s a lot of familiar faces, from the teens in breakfast-time detention to the guys chasing ghosts and dancing zombies, but the biggest surprise of all is Mary’s own protective mom as a teen. Turns out she’s actually kind of rad – but thanks to Mary’s time travel, she’s in trouble. Can Mary make things right? This adventure takes you from the mall where everything happens, to a suburban sitcom street, to a cave under the high school – and you can choose who to feature from a flexible throng of characters to bring your audience maximum nostalgia. A hilarious parody to make all ages cheer “I love the 80s!”  (Ages 7 – 14)
