PPAC Summer Camps Overview
Camps are 1-week in length with performances on Friday.
There are two separate productions each week, split by age range.
Each production is limited to 20 students so that all are featured.
Early dropoff (8:15 AM) and late pickup (until 7 PM) are available at no extra cost. Students may wait and socialize in PPAC’s lobby which has comfortable chairs, tables, and a water fountain. Please provide extra snacks and a non-internet activity such as a book, coloring/drawing, lego, etc.
Rehearsal Attendance
STUDENTS ARE EXPECTED TO ATTEND ALL CAMP DAYS FROM 10 AM to 4 PM. Any conflicts must be disclosed prior to the start of camp any may affect casting. Students who miss rehearsal time for any reason may have their role(s) reassigned to other students.
Students are expected to exhibit mature, respectful, and attentive behavior at all times during rehearsals, meal breaks, and performances. Disrespectful conduct may result in dismissal from the camp without credit or refund.
Auditions and Casting
Musical Theatre productions include lead roles, supporting roles, cameo roles, ensemble roles, and speaking and non-speaking roles. All roles are of equal importance to the show. Students may enroll in this program only if they are happy to accept and give their full efforts to any of these roles.
Auditions are held during the first morning of camp. Every student will receive a role with lines, singing, and ensemble participation, however roles may vary in line count. Regardless of the role(s) your child receives, including ensemble and supporting roles, we expect them to fully embrace their roles and take a positive and creative view of the importance of their role to the the full production.
Assignments and At-Home Practice
The director will send a daily recap email with instructions to prepare for the next day's rehearsal.
At-home practice is expected on Monday through Thursday evenings. Please arrange time for your student each night to read their lines responsively and ensure their memorization for the next day's rehearsal.
Private Lessons
We offer private acting and voice lessons to develop student's theatre skills. Feel free to contact us for information on private acting and voice lessons that may be scheduled prior to the camp week.
EARLY REGISTRATION INFORMATION:
During the early registration window (Dec. 18 to Jan. 5) you may register for one or more camps.
Due to our limit of 20 actors per production, we may not be able to accommodate all early registrations. After registering, you will receive instructions to prioritize your registrations. We will try to place each student into camps that are among their top priorities.
On January 6, we will begin finalizing registrations based on each student’s top priorities. Please note that the date a registration is received is not a factor in placement.
We will notify you of the camps we are able to confirm by Jan. 8. To finalize your registrations, complete payment within two days of receiving your invoice.
Remaining spots open to the public on Monday Jan. 12.
