Summer Camp Session #1 — Beauty & The Beast, jr.

Event Phone: (203) 610-5882

Monday-Fridays

A full-scale performance, drama training, and drama games are the primary components of the FPAS Summer Camp.  These components are incorporated into each camp day.  The camp provides a physically and emotionally safe environment to provide optimal conditions for growth and learning as both an actor and a person all while having a fun, exciting and inspirational experience.  The campers are grouped by age and when not preparing for the performance rotate from one training class to another.

The classes and rehearsals provide training in MUSICAL THEATER, ACTING, DANCING, SINGING, IMPROVISATION, SET DESIGN, ARTS & CRAFTS!   Preparation and rehearsal for the performance begin in the first few days.  Rehearsal time expands as the camp progresses.  Drama games are incorporated within the training and rehearsal sessions.

Jennifer Kenny leads and directs the camp instruction and the performance and is assisted by a staff trained in acting, singing, dancing and music.  Each day includes a morning snack break and a midday lunch break. At the end of three weeks, audiences will be delighted with the campers’ performances.

Open for children entering grades 3-11 in the fall of 2024.
Please note, there is no camp on July 4th. 

 

Schedule – Camp Session #1

Based on the original Broadway production that ran for over thirteen years and was nominated for nine Tony Awards, and the Academy Award-winning motion picture, Disney’s Beauty and the Beast JR. is a fantastic adaptation of the story of transformation and tolerance. Disney’s Beauty and the Beast JR. features some of the most popular songs ever written by Alan Menken and the late Howard Ashman, along with new songs by Mr. Menken and Tim Rice.

The classic story tells of Belle, a young woman in a provincial town, and the Beast, who is really a young prince trapped under the spell of an enchantress. If the Beast can learn to love and be loved, the curse will end and he will be transformed to his former self. But time is running out. If the Beast does not learn his lesson soon, he and his household will be doomed for all eternity.
