Youth entering 6th-12th grades (in the fall of 2024) are invited to join us for our Summer Shakespeare Camp, directed by Milo Graamans.
This year’s camp will culminate in a performance of the pastoral comedy, As You Like It. Wise fools, a magical forest, young love…all the elements that make the Bard’s comedies so much fun! Seeking her exiled father and escape from an oppressive court, Rosalind, disguised as a boy, flees with her cousin and a clown to the Forest of Arden. The woods offer freedom, a motley crew of characters, and the chance to experience life and love from a whole new perspective, with fellow outcast Orlando.
Camp leaders:
Milo Graamans, Camp Director
Danika Simon, Camp Assistant
