Drama Writers -- Southern Lehigh Middle School -- Days 8-10, July 28-30







Campers finished the week by sticking to routine and completing a daily edit every morning upon arrival. This activity kept them on their toes and allowed for practicing the important writing trait of conventions. Of course, there were more games, "Picture This" and "Hula Hoop" added fun and laughter to out time together. But these three days were full of hard work, frustrations, and successes. Campers practiced, practiced, and practiced their group skits to achieve performance level. They perfected voices, lines, projection,movement, placement, prop handling, and eye contact. All of this came together on Friday for a fabulous performance for family and friends.

Chloe sure looked like a duke, and acted like one too, in her cape and mustache.

Allie always made sure her characters had at least one line to get a laugh from the audience.

Brooke developed her look of shock over the two weeks and became quite an expert at this facial expression.

Alex took on the role of a doctor but also endured being dragged across the stage as a dead corpse.

Naomi liked to improvise and add her own flair to the written script and her characters were very well-dressed.

Olivia looked and acted very professional in her roles, but in the end, was charged with a horrible crime.

Thank you campers for a wonderful two weeks! We hope to see you next summer!
