Teen Camp Starts Tuesday July 7th

Dear Merchant of Venice Campers and Parents;

 

We\’re right around the corner from the beginning of the Theatre at St. Michael\’s Teen Shakespeare Camp, and I just wanted to touch bases with all of you.  The faculty and I, along with all of the counselors, can\’t wait to start working on \”The Merchant of Venice\”.  So please make sure to bring lots of energy and imagination with you!  We will have our final performances on Friday July 17th and Saturday July 18th at 7:00, so save those dates on your calendar.

Registration is at 10:30 on Monday morning, July 7th, at the lobby of Hill House (the gym), and I\’ll need parents to check in for a few moments at the beginning of the first day to make sure all your paperwork is in order.  If you have a balance to pay, or forms to fill out, you can do that then.  I am including a carpool form for you to bring with you on the 7th, as well as a lunch form for those of you who would like it, and another copy of the medical form in case you haven\’t sent that in yet.  Please don\’t forget to get a copy of your immunization records for me to have on file as well.

 Please use the Gibbs Ave. parking lot for drop-off and pick-up - that avoids a traffic jam with the Summer at St. Michael\’s campers.  Campers need to be picked up by 4:00, and as early as 3:00 is fine if they don\’t want to swim.  (We may decide to push rehearsals till 3:30, with a final ½ hour of free time - that will be up to the campers.)

To have lunch on the first day of camp, please call and leave a message for me or jot me an email. Otherwise, remember to bring your lunch!  It\’s also a good idea to pack a snack, as well as bottled juice or water (especially good when it gets hot out!).  Of course, don\’t forget your bathing suit and a towel for pool time at the end of each day as well.  For those of you who may not want to swim, bring a good book or playing cards if you\’d like. 

I think that\’s all the information I need to give you before we get started, but feel free to call if you have any questions.  My camp cell phone is 401-207-7699, or the Theatre at St. Michael\’s voice mail is 849-5970 x411.  Thanks, and I\’ll see you all very soon!  I can\’t wait to see what\’s in store this year!

 

 

Sincerely,

Christina Johnston (Camp Director)

P.S.  Please don\’t forget that we are closed on Monday July 6th for a belated Independence Day holiday.  Camp begins on Tuesday!
P.P.S.  We still have openings for a number of actors in this show, so if you know anyone who might like to join us, please encourage them to give me a call!
