5 Gifts of Theatre from Encore’s Summer Camps

Oh it’s definitely cold outside, but we are thinking warm thoughts with our #SummerPlanningSunday!

We are so excited to announce our 2019 Summer Camps! In theatre, there is more than what is presented on stage. There are students perfecting their craft, leaders gaining life skills, and friendships being made. In this holiday season, we are unwrapping 5 gifts of theatre when you enroll your child in our summer camps.

Gift #1 – Storytelling
There many ways to tell a story—through movement (try Broadway Bootcamp for Ages 8-12, Stage Door for Ages 11-15), writing (check out Summer Stories for Ages 8-12!), acting (take a look at It’s Elementary for Ages 5-9, Tragedy vs. Comedy for Ages 8-12, Sense & Sensibility for Ages 11-15 and Center Stage for Ages 13-18) and more. Our camps provide these different styles of storytelling that speak to our campers’ interest while challenging our students to build and sharpen their communication skills.

Gift #2 – Creativity and Imagination
Each camp session is designed to activate our campers’ creativity and imagination! Be sure to take a look at our different themes in our Camps for Ages 3-5, It’s Elementary for Ages 5-9, Improv-a-thon and Summer Nights Live for Ages 8-12.

Gift #3 – Self-Confidence
Our two and three-week camps including It’s Elementary, Scenes for Tweens, Stage Door and Center Stage all build towards a final showcase or performance, encouraging our students to gain confidence to perform onstage in front of friends and family.

Gift #4 – Teamwork
It takes an entire village to present a performance and during our time in the summer, our campers learn the value of being an excellent team player. Teamwork skills soar onstage (check out Scenes for Tweens, Stage Door and Center Stage), backstage (like Tech Camp!), and beyond!

Gift #5 – Friendship and Lasting Memories
While our campers are memorizing choreography or their lines, they’re also making new friends and lasting memories long the way.
