Wolf PAC Summer Theatre Camp is offering an opportunity exclusively for our rising ninth through twelfth graders to mount a staged reading of a contemporary musical. Working with a professional Director, this tight-knit Troupe will rehearse in the evenings for three weeks to craft an actor-driven performance at the program’s end. Minimal technical elements allow this ensemble to focus on the material and bring their unique personalities to exciting titles that energize our older, more adventurous performers.
Musical will be announced soon. Dates below are confirmed for 2027.

Troupe is a three-week session.
-
Monday - Thursday
5:30-8:30pm -
Troupe performances will take place on the third Thursday at either 5:00pm or 7:00pm. Participants will be sorted into one of two casts after the first day. The final product is known as a staged reading, with actors at music stands using scripts and limited staging to keep the focus on the process and performances.

What is a staged reading?
A staged reading is a performance that emphasizes the material over production values, such as sets and costumes. Performed mostly at music stands with limited staging, participants get to sink their teeth into the material without having to focus their energy on memorization given the short amount of time allotted for rehearsals.
Why start this program?
We loved the idea of offering our older artists a chance to have a more traditional musical performance at camp. Troupe offers a musical performance opportunity.
Is TROUPE during the camp day?
Nope! Troupe will take place in the evenings during the camp week, from 5:30-8:30pm, Monday through Thursday. CITs are welcome to remain at Wolf PAC between the end of the camp day and start of their Troupe rehearsal.
Will Troupe have a performance?
Yes! On the Thursday evening of the third week of the program, the cast will present their staged reading musical performance in the Black Box for family and friends.
Who can participate?
Troupe is open to rising ninth through twelfth graders. Participation is based on registration, not auditions. Auditions will be held during the first evening, but all who register will be cast in the show!

This tuition-free volunteer opportunity allows rising ninth through twelfth graders to hone offstage skills as a Counselor in Training (CIT), lending leadership and mentorship to younger campers. Our CITs assist with all aspects of the camp day, including tending to camper needs, assisting with rehearsals, leading warm-ups and games, helping with some Stage Management roles and more! CITs have the chance to chat with our camp leadership staff to discuss their interests so they can properly match with the group that works best for all.
Dates below are confirmed for 2027.
