WEEK THREE: Tuesday

 As promised Miss Mallory showed up first thing and we learned some sword fighting moves.  We love that Miss Mallory listened to all of our questions and that she was so clear and that she was really patient and kind!





After lunch, we journaled about some of our favorite moments over the past two days. This is because our experiences, thoughts, and observations are important. 


That was followed by two new group leaders! Noel and Emmaline. Noel led the vocal warmups. Instead of having campers form a circle, she had them form a square. She had campers say, "A box of mixed biscuits in a biscuit mixer" with all kinds of different emotions. She also had campers saying, "Aluminum Linoleum". It's really tricky and hilarious to say these things fast.


Emmaline invented some games and then led the campers in Freeze Tag. 

We ended camp with two scribes and two casts performing two scenes. Each one had clear characters and a very clear beginning, middle, and end!


We'll see you tomorrow at Drama Club!

A large one for our desktop work and a small one for on-the-road observations. We learned that theatre is really about experience, and experiencing. And so we journaled about what it would be like to experience our most awesome amusement park ride.  After that, we played a fun game of Sherlock inside. Sherlock is a lot about...

 We did it!! We had a great day. We began with Emmaline doing vocal warm-ups and Genevieve doing game warm-ups. The floor became lava and everything was fun.  So many supportive friends and family members came out! As well as mentors and volunteers. Between rehearsal and performance, we also were able to meet Miss Deb's dog, Ziggy! The weather was a little warmer today than it's been all week, but the breeze was so nice! After the show some family members found nice shade! Ledo's donated another pizza to our camp for lunch!! After lunch, we got into costume and makeup.  Rutiq and Sip at C Street Flats donated croissants and sandwiches and chips.  Thanks so much to our audience and to everyone who contributed to the 2021 Drama Club camp!
