Time Travel Week Ages 8-9

Camp | FULL

The coordinates are set and the time machine is humming! Whether dodging dinosaurs in the Jurassic era, jousting at a medieval feast, or visiting a neon city in the year 3000, students will work to expand their acting palette across the centuries. Campers will work to create time-bending stories, build characters from every era, and voyage through the past, present, and future on a race against the clock.


This camp offers a full theatrical experience where students become playwrights, actors, and directors all in one.
Using a weekly theme, myth, or story as inspiration, campers collaborate to create their own original adaptation from start to finish. They write the script, stage the production, rehearse, and share their work with family and friends on Friday.
Students gain ownership of their ideas while learning how stories come to life on stage.
Students practice:
  • Understanding dramatic structure
  • Improvising and writing dialogue
  • Developing characters and relationships
  • Editing for clear storytelling
  • Learning stage directions and theatre vocabulary
  • Using voice and movement intentionally
  • Creating theatrical worlds through sound and staging
  • Working collaboratively as an ensemble
  • Presenting work confidently to an audience
Each week explores a new story or theme, so students can return again and again with new challenges and creations.
 

  • LOCATION: NCT is located at 25 Middleton Street. Parking is available at the Middleton Street entrance to the Richard Fulton Complex. 

    EXTENDED CARE: Before and after care are available at no additional cost. Before care begins at 7:30am and after care runs until 5:30pm. Extended care consists of unstructured free time where students will play independently. Students are welcome to bring a book or electronic device (that NCT is not responsible for). Individual activities (such as puzzles, coloring pages, and games) will be provided. We will also play a daily G or PG-rated movie.

  • WHAT TO WEAR: Please have your child wear clothes and shoes that are comfortable for movement (sitting on the floor, dancing, etc.). Shoes must be closed-toe and tennis shoes are ideal. Crocs, boots, and flip flops aren’t recommended.
