Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)

Up to 40 children, ages 8-18, will be introduced and gain experience with theatrical tools needed to perform on stage; creative drama, improvisation, dancing, acting, vocal technique, diction, ensemble work and character development. Campers will complete an initial evaluation form to assess their knowledge of the materials being presented. Campers will complete a final written evaluation to assess their experience at camp and to assess if they feel they met their personal and group goals. This evaluation will include rating (numerical scale and verbally) the artistic, organizational, professional and personal merits of camp.

Measurable Outcome(s)

Successful youth theater arts activity which resulted in increased awareness and skill levels of participants. Participation increased from past year.
