The Merrimack Summer Stage Theater Program will be returning to the Wasserman Park Theater this summer.
The Wizard of Oz: Youth Edition is a one-hour adaptation of The Wizard of Oz, specially tailored for elementary and middle school-aged actors. The materials have been prepared to help your school or organization mount the best possible production and to give your young cast and crew an exciting and rewarding experience.
In this week long theater camp; participants will learn about scene acting, vocal work, dance and creative movement, theater games and improvisation. Participants will work together to produce a theatrical program that will be performed at the last day of the Theater Camp. When participants are not rehearsing, fun crafts and activities will be supervised by staff.
