AACT Academy Summer "Play" & Tech Camp
From auditions to performance, young actors will be able to go through the whole process of producing a play. Using children’s literature as a base, they will be able to write some of their lines, develop their character, create their own set, costume, and makeup design sketches. We will not build their set designs, but we will use simple stage makeup, costumes, and props. Be prepared to have them raiding the closets to find what they need to create their own costume! Actors will be expected to practice their lines and do some character development work at home. Technicians will be expected to help source sound and prop elements, and will assist in stage managing and running the sound and lights for the show.
Dates: 7/21 – 7/25
Time: 1:00 PM – 5:00 PM
Location: Jan Dempsey Community Art Center
222 E. Drave Ave., Auburn
