Summer Stock Backstage Ninjas is an intensive, immersive two-week workshop designed to teach and hone the skills necessary to be part of the backstage and technical crew for our Summer Stock production, Finding Nemo Jr. Our qualified staff provides the best in theater knowledge!
Please note: Backstage Ninja students are required to have a higher level of maturity suitable for working with power tools and backstage sets. Please remind your student of the importance of appropriate behavior at all times during camp.
Being on stage is only one aspect of a show, and an actor is only as good as the crew. As a Summer Stock Backstage Ninja, you will learn how to provide the support needed to make a show possible in this behind-the-scenes technical camp.
