CAP Theatre Company Summer: Shrek The Musical KIDS

Led by Various

In-Person

Welcome to the CAP Theatre Company, campers! At this theatre-based summer camp, students will develop musical theatre skills while having fun and making new friends as they explore the world of live performance! Guided by experienced Teaching Artist Fellows, each student will be immersed in the rehearsal process and learn how to work together to put on a performance.

Beauty is in the eye of the ogre. Based on the film and Broadway musical, Shrek the Musical KIDS is part romance and part twisted fairy tale. It’s a “big bright beautiful world” as everyone’s favorite ogre, Shrek, leads a cast of fairytale misfits on an adventure to rescue a princess and find true acceptance. Shrek KIDS is an irreverently fun show with a powerful message for the whole family.
