great theatre in the great outdoors
Look no further than Traveling Players Ensemble !!!
Traveling Players Ensemble Camp provides a unique and challenging opportunity for teens. Our mission is to bring great theatre into the great outdoors, which reflects the earliest origins of theatre, when traveling theatre troupes roamed the ancient and medieval countryside, carrying their dinner, their tent and their props in their trusty pack. TPE participants rehearse and perform outdoors in beautiful places, like the Shenandoah National Park , cultivating stronger, more adaptable and more capable artists and individuals.
Here are some opportunities Traveling Players Ensemble offers:
Go on a professional tour
2006 Tour includes Shenandoah National Park , Colonial Williamsburg , and Meadowlark Gardens
Last year's campers performed on the Kennedy Center 's Millennium Stage!
Tech theatre program where you get to work with professional designers
Spend your summer in the great outdoors doing great theatre
Shakespeare and backpacking - what could be better?
*Only 2 spaces remain in Traveling Troupe production of Midsummer Night's Dream touring to Shenandoah National Park and Colonial Williamsburg*
*Spaces are still available for the High School Ensemble's production of Two Gentlemen of Verona directed by Dr. Henry Hoffman, cited by " USA Today" as one of the top 20 educators in the country.*
We still have space in these program for: actors , technicians , and assistant counselors . Scholarships available for talented and dedicated students. Application required.
