Summer Kids@the Alley
Beowulf Alley Theatre’s Theatre Arts Enhancement Camp
(Tucson, AZ) Beowulf Alley Theatre, 11 S. 6th Avenue in downtown Tucson, today announced their summer program for students ages 9-17. There are four two-weeks sessions beginning on June 7 and running until August 6. The program design is based on the following mission:
“Creating a performance-based learning experience that will provide our participants with a fun, expressive outlet; develop valuable skills through collaboration and creative interaction; foster awareness and sensitivity; and instill an appreciation and love of the art of Theatre.”
Each two-week session is priced at an affordable $290 and will contain the following units:
Creative Movement and Improvisation
Can you tell a story without saying a single word? Learn physical expression, economy of movement and how to improvise on your feet!
Voice and Character
Learn techniques for breathing, enunciation, and projection. Then, build your actor’s toolkit and prepare a scene for public performance!
Telling the Story: Create a Play From Scratch
It’s a blast! Learn how plays are constructed, then participate as part of a team to write your own ten-minute play!
Planning, Preparation, and Performance
Who does what in the theatre? How does a script turn into a performance? Learn how smart planning turns into top-notch performance in front of family and friends on the last day of the session, which Includes time for parents to shoot photos after the performance!
There are four sessions from which to choose: Attend One…Or Come Back For More!
Session 1: Monday June 7th – Friday June 18th
8:00am to Noon Ages 9 – 12*

* Session schedules will be determined based on minimum enrollment. In some cases, students may be offered different times.
Though each session contains the same elements, students taking more than one session will build on what they’ve learned. Each session will feature at least one or more special guests who specialize in acting, directing, playwriting, design or technical skills. There’s plenty to learn, more friends to meet, and plenty of fun!
