The stakes are higher than ever in this dynamic stage musical, as SpongeBob and all of Bikini Bottom face the total annihilation of their undersea world. Chaos erupts. Lives hang in the balance. And just when all hope seems lost, a most unexpected hero rises up and takes center stage. The power of optimism really can save the world!

Details

CTA’s three-week production summer camps focus on the main elements of putting a production quickly. During our time together, students will be put through placement auditions, casting, rehearsing, character development, working on sets and more. In between rehearsals, campers will participate in theater games and exercises that will help fine-tune their skills including improvisation, music and dance. This all leads up to two public performances on our main stage.

Placement Auditions: Everyone who registers in this camp is guaranteed a role in the show. A placement audition will be held to figure out the best fit for everyone in the show based upon the Artistic Team’s decisions. Placement decisions will be based upon vocal, acting, and dance skills displayed during the process.

Lunch & Snacks: Students must bring a healthy lunch + two snacks each day. Bring a water bottle with your child’s name on it. NO glass bottles.

Appearance: Students are required to wear black pants or shorts, a black top (T-shirt, leotard, or tank top) and black dance shoes or sneakers secured with laces or velcro. No open-toe shoes, flip-flops, sandals or Crocs. Clothing must be appropriate for dancing/movement. Hair must be pulled back and away from the face.

Your tuition includes:

• One complimentary CTA production summer camp T-shirt*
• Direction / instruction from a highly qualified artistic team
• Production elements (script, access to digital recording or rehearsal tracks, props, specialty costumes…some basic costume pieces may be requested from home, if necessary)
