About the show: This play follows Mrs. Wilson’s school class as they bring Treasure Island to life in their classroom. The students play all the parts by borrowing everyday classroom pieces to become their swords, telescopes, and treasure. In the story Jim Hawkins sets his course for adventure to find secret treasure with the unlikeliest teams. They quickly decide to outfit a ship and travel the sea. Aboard ship, Jim meets Long John Silver, who befriends him. But Jim quickly learns who Long John really is and what his plans are. Once the ship anchors at Treasure Island the pirates turn on Jim and his companions. Jim takes on the responsibility of saving the ship and his shipmates to secure that treasure! Any gender can portray any role. Adapted by R. Rex Stephenson, this is a one-hour straight play, not a musical. Produced by special arrangement with THE DRAMATIC PUBLISHING COMPANY of Woodstock, Illinois.
About the program: OFC’s kid camp shows are typically 60-minutes in length and include full cast opportunities and areas to feature lead and supporting characters. Compared to school year OFC programs, these will be a bit larger scale than our Elementary School shows, but a bit more time efficient than our Middle School shows – to ensure all students have a fantastic experience. Auditions are held on the first day, with materials taught by the instructors; all students who register will be in the show with our “no cut” policy. Directors are ready to meet all students at their respective experience level and feature their skill sets appropriately, no matter how long they have been performing. Please note: There may be two casts for this camp that will rehearse at the same time, in the same location but have separate performances.
OFC’s before-care and after-care program is available for this camp.
