"C.A.M.M.P., or Create-A-Mini-Musical-Play, is a workshop/camp I developed in 2011, after working on 30+ musicals as a music director in NYC, Chicago, and the Midwest, obtaining an M.F.A. in Musical Theatre Writing from NYU, and touring with Chicago’s ‘Child’s Play Touring Theatre.’

In only a two days, I will take kids through the process of writing and performing in their own original mini-musical. The final show is always fun and an incredibly positive experience, for kids and adults. Costumes / sets are minimal (think ‘black box theatre,’ with kids playing dress up and / or making their own cardboard props).

The focus is on the creative process – and kids are able to create the characters of their dreams, while working collaboratively on a story, and it’s my great joy to tie it all together into one cohesive piece (and narrate / accompany on piano, off to the side ) If this sounds like fun to you, please contact me at jessicaintherainbow@gmail.com for more information and rates. Thanks!"
