Hello everyone,

We have TWO SUMMER CAMPS going this year!  Both are Musical Theatre Creation Camps (info is below).  We have partnered with SUN Community Schools and West Linn Parks & Recreation to bring you these camps.  Hurrah!  Registration info is below.

We hope to see your young artist at one of our camps this summer.

Musical Creation Summer Camps

Create your own musical theatre play and perform it!

New Moon Productions, SUN Community Schools and West Linn Parks & Rec. present a unique Summer Camp in which the students will create and perform an original musical theatre play.

The students are guided by nurturing professional teachers - Michael Wehrli and Kristina Armetta - in writing a play based on an idea or issue that is of importance to the students.  They will create their characters, edit the text, compose the music, rehearse and perform their own original musical play.

Through this process the young artists will gain self confidence, artistic growth, awareness of the strength of community, and most of all – a safe forum where they can express their views and feelings.

What makes this program so unique?  The personal empowerment aspect and the complete ownership of the finished theatrical piece by the students.  Prior class experience is recommended.
