Requirements: Campers must be available for all camp dates and shows, no conflicts will be allowed outside of family emergencies and sickness. This camp is designed for all levels, but campers must be prepared for long & intensive rehearsals and are required to participate in all aspects of theater. Roles for the musical are assigned during camp, and no refunds will be offered for any reason. No before & after care will be provided. Kids can be dropped off no earlier than 8:30am and picked up no later than 5:30pm. Campers will be costuming themselves and providing their own makeup (costume guidance will be provided). Campers must also bring their own lunch. 

About the Show: 

This summer, our Cats performances will take place on the mainstage and utilize the same set, props and lighting as our mainstage show of Cats so that campers can get the full performance experience. Campers will put on matinee performances before our evening showings with the adult cast, and will also receive their own Thursday night showing. 

CATS is set amongst a larger-than-life junkyard playground and is alive with purr-fect felines, including Rum Tum Tugger, Mr. Mistoffelees, Macavity, Jennyanydots, Old Deuteronomy, Skimbleshanks and Grizabella. The Jellicle Cats come out to play on one special night of the year—the night of the Jellicle Ball. One by one, they tell their stories for the amusement of Old Deuteronomy, their wise and benevolent leader, who must choose one of the Cats to ascend to The Heaviside Layer and be reborn into a whole new Jellicle life.
