Penobscot Theatre Company to Host February Vacation Camp

Penobscot Theatre Company is hosting a theatrical day camp for children ages 4-14 during February School Vacation, February 15-19. Each day, expert and highly energetic teaching artists will lead participants in theme-based dramatic activities. "February Vacation Camp is one of the most action-packed weeks we have here at Penobscot Theatre Company!" said Amy Roeder, the company's director of education. "This year, along with perennial favorites, we're thrilled to offer some new activities, like a stage makeup workshop on Design Day!" Vacation camp will begin at 9:00 am with structured activities until 4:00 pm. Because each day will be centered on a different theme, students may register for any or all of the following:

• Monday: Theatre 101
• Tuesday: Musical Theatre
• Wednesday: Shakespeare
• Thursday: Theatrical Design
• Friday: Fractured Fairytales

Each day will end with a showcase of the work for students' families, from 3:45 to 4:00 pm. All activities will be held at the Bangor Opera House, 131 Main Street, Bangor. February Vacation Camp costs $50 per day or $225 for the week. Tuition expenses may be eligible for a federal tax credit, as well.
