WARWICK, RI
– Does your child like to sing, dance
and use their imagination? If so,
Camp OSTC is the perfect place for them to
utilize their musical theatre talent and have fun at the same time! This year’s
camp has been expanded and will be offered for two separate three-week sessions – the
first from July 8 – 26 and the
second from July 29 – August 16.
Campers may attend either or both sessions.
Not
only will campers have fun, but they’ll also have the opportunity to work with
top quality theatre professionals
while they learn performance techniques including acting, voice and
dance, as well as technical skills including the design and creation of
costumes, sets, and props, to be utilized for a full scale musical production,
which will be performed by the campers on stage at OSTC’s new state-of-the-art
theatre located at 1245 Jefferson
Boulevard in Warwick. A selection of master classes, taught
by guest artists, will also be included during each three-week session.
“We
are so excited to be able to offer this unique camp experience this summer,”
said Producing Artistic Director, Amiee
Turner. “We are happy to announce that one of this year’s campers will be chosen
to receive a scholarship provided by The Keri Anne O’Donnell Memorial
Fund. In addition, we are pleased to be able to subsidize a select number
of
campers thanks to the generosity of
several anonymous donors.”
The
Keri Anne O’Donnell Memorial Fund was established to honor the memory of Keri Anne O’Donnell, who loved
everything about performing – singing, dancing and acting. In theatrical terms,
she was a triple threat. Keri was just 15 years old when she was killed in a car
accident. The O’Donnell family feels it is their mission to keep Keri’s dreams
alive by assisting other youngsters like her - performers who have a passion for
a performing art.
Camp OSTC will be
held at Ocean State Theatre located at 1245 Jefferson Boulevard in Warwick, RI from July 8 – 26 and July 29 – August 16 and is limited to
30 students entering grades 3-9 per
session. Spots are being filled on a
first come/first served basis.
