MUSICAL 2023
ANNE OF GREEN GABLES
Set in the late 19th century, the story follows the adventures of the 11 year old orphan girl Anne Shirley sent by mistake to two middle-aged siblings, who had originally intended to adopt a boy to help them on their farm in Canada.

ABOUT TECH CAMP
Teens may choose the TECH CAMP instead of the DRAMA CAMP.
TECH CAMP is the same price and times. The difference is the TECH CAMP will work behind the scenes, learning set, lighting and sound design. TECH CAMP will NOT be on stage learning the script and music for the performance. They will be behind the scenes, keeping the show moving – just as important as the actors!
