Firebird Theatre Hosting Summer Acting Camp for Borough Kids

The following release was provided by Firebird Theatre. 

Phoenixville’s Firebird Theatre is offering two exciting summer camps geared towards kids from 7 through 18 who are interested in drama and the theatre arts. No previous theatre experience is necessary.

In June, kids ages 7-12 can enjoy a two-week drama camp held at the Colonial Theatre. Our professional drama teachers will teach the students basic singing, acting and dancing skills, and how they are combined in a theatrical production. On the last day of camp a short musical presentation of “Cinderella Kids” will be performed free for family and friends, to demonstrate the newly acquired talents.

The camp will run Monday through Friday, June 17-28, from 9 am til 1 pm. It will be held at the celebrated Colonial Theatre, 227 Bridge Street, and the musical performance will be on this historic stage.

In July, Firebird will offer an intensive three-week drama workshop camp for performers ages 7 through 18. Participants in this camp will work on musical theatre skills as well as blocking, costuming and props. At the end of the camp a full-scale production of “The Little Mermaid Jr” will be presented on the Colonial’s stage.

This camp is from July 15 through August 2, with performances on August 2 and 3.  Camp runs Monday through Friday from 9:00 am til 1:00 pm at the Colonial Theatre.
