Summer Youth Theatre Camp
returns to WCCT August 7-11, 2023
Great news for area youth interested in exploring the exciting world of theatre. Webster City Community Theatre is joining forces with Coralville Center for the Performing Arts to bring “The Call of the Matterhorn” to WCCT August 7-11, 2023. Registration is limited to 40 youth who will be 7 years old by camp through those entering 8th grade this fall.
Footlighters Traveling Playhouse is a new touring program of the the Young Footliter Youth Theatre in Coralville. During the week-long workshop, campers will audition, rehearse, and perform a musical alongside three professional teaching actors. They will be taught theatre skills such as projection, improvisation, creative problem solving, working together to tell a story, and also learn about the Alps and the mountain ecosystem.
The Footliters program is very similar to the successful workshops the Old Creamery Theatre brought to WCCT 2013-2019. The Amana organization permanently closed in February 2022 during the pandemic. WCCT board members were pleased to learn that another theatre had picked up the mantle.
“The Call of the Matterhorn” is a new production with a script by Katie Colleta and original music by Jason Sifford. High above the foothills of the Swiss Alps, one snowy mountain towers above them all–a mountain only for the bravest of heart. The musical adventure is filled with magic, mystery, and tests of true character. The week culminates in two public performances on August 11 complete with costumes, props, makeup, sets, and songs. Each camper receives a role, script, and the support they need to shine.
Campers are expected to attend each day, Monday through Friday, from 9:30am to 1:30pm. They are required to bring a sack lunch and personal water bottle to each rehearsal.
To request a registration form, email wcctboxoffice@gmail.com with your name and email address. You will receive an email with the registration form attached. Forms are also available at the Webster City Chamber of Commerce office and the Kendall Young Library.
The non-refundable camper fee of $80 is due at the time of registration. Mail your completed form and check payable to Webster City Community Theatre to: WCCT, PO Box 272, Webster City, IA 50595.
