About the camps -​

​

At the start of each camp week, campers will get to know each Teaching Artist and learn core skills to prepare them for the week.  

 

On the following days, campers will be put into small groups and given a MYSTERY BOX. The goal is for them to work together to create a performance based on the box's contents.

​

After opening and exploring their box, campers are guided through creative writing and play exercises to ignite their imagination. 

 

Matrix Teaching Artists will then facilitate discussions identifying themes and ideas that stemmed from the contents of the mystery box. 

 

Campers will create a story, develop characters, setting and will stage their production.

​

Each week's camp culminates in a showcase of original performances for families and friends.
