Summer Camp

Diary of a Wimpy Kid

Diary of a Wimpy Kid-LOGO

In this exciting summer camp, students will embark on a journey of putting on a fully-staged 60 minute musical!

Summer camps start the day with a morning conversation around a positive, enriching value or theme for the day, such as compassion, leadership, or communication. There is also wrap up time at the end of the day to conclude the day with reflection on the dayโ€™s value or theme.

This camp is a two-week, full day camp. Campers will need to bring a lunch, snack, and water bottle each day.

This is an action-packed and challenging week(s) full of learning, fun, and friends! Students will study acting, music, and dance as part of the rehearsal process, which also includes technical elements such as lights, sound, set, costumes, props, and projections. Camps end with a fully-staged performance!

Audition Information

Students audition prior to the start of the program, however, upon enrollment, every student has a place in the cast. The auditions allow the teaching artists to find the best role for each student.

Students register for an audition time slot, and proceed through the audition process in small groups. Auditions have voice, dance, and acting components and are structured to provide a supportive atmosphere where students are encouraged to be brave and show the artistic team engagement, willingness to learn, and a positive, collaborative spirit. No previous experience is needed.

Show Description:

Middle school, ugh. Itโ€™s the worst. But Greg is determined not to be at the bottom of the popularity chart. Heโ€™ll leave that to his weird neighbor, Fregley. Or maybe Gregโ€™s best friend, Rowley Jefferson. But itโ€™s not going to be Gregโ€ฆno way.

Jeff Kinneyโ€™s popular character takes center stage as Gregโ€™s cartoon diary becomes a hilarious and heartfelt musical. Will Gregโ€™s plans to become popular lead him to sacrifice his one true friend? Can anyone avoid the dreaded Cheese Touch? Grab a hall pass and donโ€™t be late for an adventure familiar to anyone who actually survived middle school.
