FAQ
What is the class schedule?
Classes run from 10am-4pm from Monday to Friday for the five weeks of the program. There are no classes on June 19 (Juneteenth) and on July 4. Participants are expected to attend all classes and rehearsals. Participants that opt to take the Theatre Tech Elective will have an additional hour of class from 4pm-5pm.
Will my child actually learn Shakespeare?
Yes! We have crafted a curriculum with appropriately scaffolded content that allows your child aged 6-9 to engage with Shakespeare on a level that is appropriate for them. At the Two-Week Intensive Culmination, your camper will perform manageable selections of Love’s Labour’s Lost in the original blank verse!
