Mary Poppins | Ages 8 -11

CLASS DESCRIPTION

Boulder Performing Arts Summer Camps are Monday - Friday, 9AM - 3PM Students will request a character to play in this non competitive environment and be assigned a role. Everyone will have the opportunity to perform select songs from the show as well as perform a revised story line for our short turnaround. We end our week with a free performance around pickup time on the big stage. Summer camps are focused on fun, creativity, singing, dancing, and acting. Starting on Monday we meet our kids and learn about their skill levels. We play acting games to help our kids get comfortable and aquatinted with the other students. We talk about our weekly show theme and start to figure out the most important parts of the shows with the students. After writing their scripts (to help them learn their lines) we start putting our show together with songs and dances. Simple costumes will be provided. All students will need to pack a water bottle, morning snack, lunch, and afternoon snack. During our lunch/break time our activity depends on the students energy. We will either watch a G-PG rated movie (usually the one the camp is focused on), draw, play games, or go on a walk outside. When Jane and Michael , the children of the wealthy and uptight Banks family, are faced with the prospect of a new nanny, they are pleasantly surprised by the arrival of the magical Mary Poppins . Embarking on a series of fantastical adventures meeting penguins and flying kites with Mary and her Cockney performer friend, Bert, the siblings try to pass on some of their nanny's sunny attitude to their preoccupied parents.
