Program Description

Sleeping Beauty Children’s Production Camp (Ages 7–10)
Monday–Friday, 9:00 AM–1:00 PM
An optional Extended Care program from 1:00 PM to 5:00 PM

Step into a magical world of creativity, movement, and storytelling! Our Sleeping Beauty Children’s Production Camp invites young artists to explore the enchanting tale of princesses, fairies, and adventure through ballet, theatre, and visual arts.

Over five joyful mornings, children will be immersed in a collaborative creative process guided by two experienced instructors—a ballet teacher and a theatre arts teacher. Each day begins with a lively ballet warm-up and foundational technique, where students will learn expressive movement and choreography inspired by the graceful “Waltz of the Flowers.”

After a snack break, campers dive into the story of Sleeping Beauty, discovering its characters, emotions, and themes. Through hands-on art activities, they will design and create costume pieces, props, and visual artwork to be proudly displayed at the final showcase. Theatre sessions will help children bring characters to life using voice, imagination, and stage presence.

Each day concludes with a collaborative rehearsal where students weave together dance, acting, and storytelling—building toward a magical final showcase.

Program Outcomes
By the end of the week, participants will:

  • Gain confidence in movement, expression, and performance
  • Learn basic ballet technique and choreography in a fun, supportive environment
  • Develop storytelling skills through theatre and imaginative play
  • Explore creativity through hands-on art and costume design
  • Build collaboration and teamwork skills by working as part of a production
  • Experience the full creative process—from idea to stage performance

This camp is more than just a performance—it’s a creative journey where every child becomes a storyteller, artist, and performer.
