Do you love theater? Do you have a big imagination? Have you always wished you could see the characters and stories in your head come to life in front of you? Then this camp is for you! Through acting games, writing exercises, and theater, we’ll learn the basics of playwriting, including character, conflict, and what makes writing for the stage extra special in an era when we’re surrounded by screens. We’ll write our own plays to share with families and friends in a staged reading on Friday.

Teaching Artist(s): Katherine Varga
