We’re offering TWO grade levels this summer for our workshops: Younger Ages (Rising First – Third Grade) and Older Ages (Rising Fourth – Tenth Grade) Pricing First Student: $350 per week Sibling & Multiple Week Camp Discounts are available Madagascar Workshop June 12-16 & July 17-21   Get read to MOVE IT, MOVE IT! Join Alex the Lion, Marty the Zebra, Melman the Giraffe, Gloria the hip hip Hippo and, of course, those hilarious, plotting penguins in this crack-a-lackin’ adventure from New York City to Madagascar. Matilda Workshop June 19-23 & July 24-28   It’s time to act like REVOLTIN’ CHILDREN! Matilda is a little girl with astonishing wit, intelligence and psychokinetic powers. Matilda’s school life isn’t completely smooth sailing, however – the school’s mean headmistress, Miss Trunchbull, hates children and just loves thinking up new punishments for those who don’t abide by her rules. But Matilda has courage and cleverness in equal amounts, and could be the school pupils’ saving grace! Shrek Workshop June 26-30 & July 31-August 4   Come and let your FREAK FLAG FLY! It’s a “big bright beautiful world” as everyone’s favorite ogre, Shrek, leads a cast of fairytale misfits on an adventure to rescue a princess and find true acceptance. When Shrek sets off with a wisecracking donkey to confront Farquaad, he’s handed a task — if he rescues feisty princess Fiona, his swamp will be righted. Shrek tries to win Fiona’s love and vanquish Lord Farquaad, but a fairytale wouldn’t be complete without a few twists and turns along the way. The Little Mermaid Workshop July 10-14 & August 7-11   Discover what it means to be PART OF YOUR WORLD! In a magical underwater kingdom, the beautiful young mermaid, Ariel, longs to leave her ocean home — and her fins — behind and live in the world above. But first, she’ll have to defy her father, King Triton, make a deal with the evil sea witch, Ursula, and convince the handsome Prince Eric that she’s the girl whose enchanting voice he’s been seeking.
