LFL - Summer Drama

2024 SUMMER DRAMA IS A WRAP!
Thanks for a great summer.
See you in 2025!

2024 SUMMER DRAMA CAMPS

LFL's Summer Drama programs are a gentle introduction to theatre and drama, incorporating life skills, teamwork, imagination building and social justice themes in a fun and supportive environment. Our professional teaching artists guide participants in dramatic play, devising, and theatrically sharing their discoveries by using the same tools and techniques we use in our original productions.

All summer drama camps culminate
in a final sharing on the last day.
All prices include a camp t-shirt.

Your stories, your way! Working to craft a play that explores ideas, issues and themes that matter to each of you, you all will be guided by LFL Teaching Artists in the same kind of collaborative playwriting techniques used in creating LFL's professional shows.

What’s the story, y’all? Have you ever wanted to create a play based on your own life, your own experiences, your own thoughts and feelings? Come tell your stories your way, by participating in artistic team building and collaborative playwriting activities that will lead to the creation of an original play based on a topic of your group's choosing.
