Red Door TheatreSummer Camps***************************************RED DOOR UPDATE - March 18 The health and safety of our actors, staff, and patrons is of the utmost importance to us, and so the theatre is currently dark. We are working to reschedule the shows we could not hold in March, and we are waiting to see how things pan out for our April Tiny Tales. As for SUMMER CAMP - We will be going ahead with registration on April 4th, as planned. Our sincere hope is that we will be able to hold summer camp, as usual. However, we are well aware that everyone is feeling uncertain at this time. So, if we are forced to cancel any summer programs, all registrations for the affected camps will refunded. Please note that some changes have been made to the Summer Camp schedule. Camp will start a week later than planned, and the Junior Camp that was scheduled for the last full week of June will now be held in August. Be sure to review dates carefully before you register. Stay safe, wash your hands, and know that we love you! ********************************************** We offer seven or eight one week camps in the summer. Three of these camps are for children between 8 and 15, one is for children 10-15, and three of summer camps are dedicated to those between 5 and 9. Each camp with the older children ends in the public performance of four shows complete with costumes, make-up, sets and theatrical lighting and sound that add a professional and polished look to each production. The shows range from adaptations of classics such as The Hobbit and The Wizard of Oz to original plays such as Westward Bound and The Sword and the Crystal. Shakespeare, musicals, stories from popular books or movies as well as those based on other cultures are also common themes for the shows produced at theatre camp. K&K (Kit & Kaboodle) STaGE Theatre camps are one of a kind run by professional directors.

Prince Charming is nowhere in sight, she's got the Mad Hatter as an English teacher, the Sheriff of Nottingham as a fencing coach, Ogres on the football team, and the Queen of Hearts trying to take over as principal. When the chemistry lab blows up and students go missing, Katie finds herself in the role of detective while still trying to do her stepsisters' homework and trying to find her happily ever after in this comic, modern fairy tale.

Will a war between her Norwegian father and the neighboring Viking castle of Prince Valiant bring an end to the evil fairies curse? Will Princess Welcome ever see the light of day again?

If you like to sing and dance, then this is the camp that will give you that opportunity to do so and keep you in stitches. Join us in the laboratory as we take the classic Frankenstein and turn it upside down and inside out. We will sing wacky songs like "Monster-Maker Shuffle", "Funkystein Slide" and "Monsters Need To Be Loved".
