Introducing...
Camp Story Wranglers

Calling all story makers!
F
or the kids who love to write AND perform!

Inspired by our highly successful in-school Literacy to Life program, students will explore a multitude of story-writing strategies that will have them collaborating with the Story Wranglers, the Paramount’s Professional Acting Ensemble! This camp will not only challenge students to be creative writers, it will have students exploring all genres of storytelling such as songwriting, puppet making, film, movement, and of course – theatre! The first week will focus on creating the stories and the second week will have students up on their feet performing their work with the Story Wranglers! The camp ends with a performance for family and friends in the newly renovated Stateside Theatre.
