Congratulations to all the students on their progress and talent. A heartfelt "break-a-leg" to these actors for their performances on July 13 at 7:30 pm & July 14 at 2 pm!
 
Most sincerely,  
Christie Clark and Debra Smyers, FCT Co-Executive Directors

(The two-week Madagascar Summer Camp registration is closed)


Alex the lion, Marty the zebra, Gloria the hippo and Melvin the giraffe live in New York City's Central Park Zoo. Life in the zoo is cushy and comfortable for all.  Marty the zebra though would like to leave the zoo to discover the wild and explore where zebras come from.

Madagascar summer camp at Fauquier Community Theatre takes place the last week of July and into the first week of August; registration is closed as the camp is filled to capacity with youth. Campers will experience an audition, character development, memorization, warm ups, acting technique games and exercises.  There will also be lessons about costumes, lighting, sound, direction and set with hands on opportunity to explore each aspect of what it takes to produce a show. In doing so campers will be experiencing lots of fun team work, confidence building, their own character building and creative thinking. Director Lucia Hanover says, "I can't wait to get started and have fun in the "wild" with the Madagascar campers at Fauquier Community Theatre this summer!"
 
If you missed out on registering your child for FCT Summer Camp this year, please look for our information earlier next year. Questions? Email info@fctstage.org.
