Witness the magic of theatre at work as your child turns a classic children’s book into a live stage performance! Over the course of one week, campers will participate in theatre games and exercises designed to teach them all the skills necessary to bring Doreen Cronin’s lively pastoral comedy to life. Activities will focus on skills such as critical reading, storytelling, building stage confidence, and the fundamentals of acting. Family and friends are invited to join us at the end of the week for a performance of the campers’ work!

Phoenix & Turtle Shakespeare Players: Twelfth Night

Ages 12-17 // July 14-25, 9am-4pm // $800

“If music be the food of love, play on!” A great session for Shakespeare newbies and veterans alike, our summer teen Shakespeare intensive is back again to teach your camper all they need to know to break down a Shakespearean text. Over the course of their two weeks, campers will fill their actor’s toolbox with skills for learning verse, text work, character development, and more, and then apply those skills by performing an abbreviated Twelfth Night. Families and friends are invited to the performance on the Sedgwick stage at the end of the session!

The Phoenix and Turtle Club is an ensemble of young artists dedicated to performing classical works of drama and literature.

Quintessence Theatre Group is excited to announce another season of summer camp at the Sedgwick Theater located in the culturally and economically diverse Mt. Airy neighborhood of Northwest Philadelphia. This annual theatre camp is part of Quintessence’s mission to develop the next generation of classical theatre lovers. Each week culminates in a performance for family and friends, an opportunity for participants to build confidence, explore creativity, and experience the theatrical process first-hand.
