Summer Camp
Madagascar Jr
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 dayโs value or theme.
This camp is a two-week, half-day camp. Campers will need to bring a snack and water bottle each day. During auditions, campers will be placed in either the AM or PM cast based on their role.
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:
Join Alex the Lion, Marty the Zebra, Melman the Giraffe, Gloria the hip hip Hippo and, of course, those hilarious, plotting penguins as they bound onto your stage in the musical adventure of a lifetime. Based on the smash DreamWorks animated motion picture, Madagascar โ A Musical Adventure JR. follows all of your favorite crack-a-lackinโ friends as they escape from their home in New Yorkโs Central Park Zoo and find themselves on an unexpected journey to the madcap world of King Julienโs Madagascar.
Alex the lion is the king of the urban jungle, the main attraction at New York’s Central Park Zoo. He and his best friends โ Marty the zebra, Melman the giraffe and Gloria the hippo โ have spent their whole lives in blissful captivity before an admiring public and with regular meals provided for them. Not content to leave well enough alone, Marty lets his curiosity get the better of him and makes his escape โ with the help of some prodigious penguins โ to explore the world.
We were able to secure the rights to make a video recording of this production. DVDs and BluRays will be available to purchase after the show.
