Children’s Fall Theatre Camp 2026: Puppetry & Performance

Grades 3-12
August 22 – November 7

An educational experience focused on combining dramatic and technical skills allowing for self-exploration through the world of puppetry, taught by Zoë Peterson. Skills taught in this course include collaboration, ensemble building, playwriting, design, and acting through voice and movement.

Saturdays: 9 AM – Noon

Together students will create puppets out of found materials and bring them to life through crafting and characterization! We’ll be building these puppets using upcycled materials – think cardboard, scrap fabric, etc., while experimenting with different styles from shadow puppets to more traditional, hand puppetry. As students craft their puppets, they’ll also find their voices: creating scenes that focus on the combination of puppetry and performance.

Performance Date: Sat, Nov 7 @ 2pm
