End of Week 2!

WOW! It’s been an amazing and PACKED week! We are so excited to share that our play is almost finished. We’ve worked really hard all week on it- if you can call singing, dancing, and creating a play about an alien encounter “work.”

We can’t wait for you to see our final play, which will even feature a dance choreographed by two of our campers, Fiona and Mai! The final performance will be on Friday, July 16th at 2PM! More information forthcoming in your email on Monday.

For a little teaser…get ready to meet the citizens of AppleRiver! I’m SURE nothing WEIRD or SUSPICIOUS will happen to them!

Please enjoy some photos from our week, and don’t forget to check our Instagram for some videos!

TeensAct! Week Two!

Happy Monday, everyone! We had a great day of camp today, and we’re looking forward to an exciting week.

Today, we welcomed a new camper! We played lots of games, and we started devising scenes and doing improvisation around some of the themes that we talked about last week. We’re starting to figure out what we want our play to be about!

Singing with Gaylan!
Making scenes!
More scenes!
A frozen image, or “tableau”!
The whole cast together!

It’s going to be a fantastic week! As usual, feel free to reach out to Jane with any questions!

XOXO,

TeensAct! staff

Happy Friday!

It’s been a wonderful first week of TeensAct! We’ve had such a great time playing games and making theatre and singing with your teens. We’re looking forward to having another great week next week!

I’ll be posting some videos from our work and play this week on our social media, including a video of us singing a song with Gaylan, a video of a silly open scene moment, and a video of everyone boogie-ing! Be sure to follow us on Instagram and on Facebook!

The Week in Review:

We learned how to create Commedia-style characters with Sam, and we did creative movement!

Campers in action!

Wednesday was WACKY WEDNESDAY!

Wacky campers!
More wackiness!

Rainy days will never stop us from doing silly dances at TeensAct!

Campers in motion!

We always create a group agreement in our first week of camp to help us figure out how we want to work together!

How we want to treat each other and be treated at camp!

We did plenty of scenework and improv!

Improv-ing in progress!
“Who’s there?”

Finally, we are here to make a play to perform at the end of camp! On Friday, we started brainstorming about our play.

Some of our ideas!
Where should our play take place? On a volcano, of course!

It’s been a fantastic week, and we can’t wait to see you again on Monday between 8:30 and 9AM!
