We are excited to introduce a new 4-week summer musical theatre camp for 10 to 13-year-olds, ending with two performances of Seussical Jr.! The camp will run from June 16 to July 11 (no camp July 4) from 10:00 am-2:30 pm. Campers will learn about singing, dancing, and acting in musical theatre and apply these skills to rehearsals and performances. No audition or previous experience necessary to join. Seussical Jr. is a children’s musical based on the whimsical world of Dr. Seuss, following the adventures of Horton the Elephant and his friends in the Jungle of Nool. The musical explores themes of friendship, loyalty, and standing up for what you believe in.

Camp and production director Jack Krimmel brings over 15 years of music and theatre experience to the program, including serving as music director for award-winning productions recognized at the Kennedy Center of the Performing Arts. He is looking forward to sharing his love of music and theatre with the community. “Seussical Jr. is one of my favorite shows. I am thrilled to help build a musical theatre program that will ignite that same love in a new generation of performers.”

Campers will audition for Seussical Jr. roles during the first week. Performances are Friday, July 11 at 7 pm and Saturday, July 12 at 11 am. The program fee is $400 for the 4 weeks of camp and performances. The Community Center welcomes participants from La Cañada, La Crescenta, Glendale, Pasadena and beyond.
