Annie KIDS
Based on the popular comic strip and adapted from the Tony Award-winning Best Musical, with a beloved book and score by Tony Award-winners, Thomas Meehan, Charles Strouse and Martin Charnin, Annie KIDS features everyone’s favorite little redhead in her very first adventure. With equal measures of pluck and positivity, little orphan Annie charms everyone’s hearts despite a next-to-nothing start in 1930s New York City. Annie is determined to find the parents who abandoned her years ago on the doorstep of an orphanage run by the cruel Miss Hannigan. Annie eventually foils Miss Hannigan’s evil machinations, finding a new home and family in billionaire, Oliver Warbucks, his personal secretary, Grace Farrell, and a lovable mutt named Sandy.
In this two-week musical summer intensive, students will rehearse to prepare for a Friday evening performance: Annie KIDS, which takes place on the second Friday of the camp. Students will receive solo and group instruction to develop their drama, dance, and vocal skills while having fun and making memories. In addition, this camp also incorporates our brand-new design and production components. Get hands-on experience with all the design aspects of theatre, such as lighting and costume design. These classes are an excellent introduction to all the behind-the-scenes magic that goes into producing a show. Professionals from the industry will be brought in throughout the camp. Watch out, parents—we’ll WOW you with a performance on the last day of camp!
Program fee is $710 f registered by April 15th; Program fee is $770 if registered April 16th -May 15th; Program fee is $795 if registered after May 15th.
