2010 Summer Camp and Registration
Following are descriptions and information about all of our camps. Please note dates, locations, and ages.
Our camps are done “Stage Struck Style.” That means we have usually three sets of characters revolving through the story as it is told. This gives more students an opportunity to perform. Also, we do not present the whole play just select scenes and songs.
All camps start at 9:30 am and end at 3:00 PM. We appreciate promptness at both times. You must sign your child in and out each day. Before and aftercare is available, please check the “Policies and Procedures” link for more information.
“All ages” means students are rehearsed in separate groups based on age and performance material is assigned accordingly. There are several songs that the whole camp participates in, and during breaks all ages mingle. Six years old is the youngest age we accept.

Cinderella started as a fairy tale, became a Disney classic animated film and a blockbuster musical by Rodgers and Hammerstein. Now, in “Our Own Little Corner” of West Seattle, the fairy godmother waves her magic wand once again to bring you Stage Struck’s Cinderella! This is a song-stuffed version of Cinderella with lots of fun characters like a rotten stepmother, hilarious wicked stepsisters, a goofy king and queen, and of course, our heroine and her Prince. “A Lovely Night” will be had by all! But hurry! Don’t be the last one to arrive at the ball! Put your foot into Cinderella’s slipper, and see if it fits!
