Register for Creative Kids Camp with the Greenbelt Recreation Department, starting Feb 17

CREATIVE KIDS CAMP Ages 6-12

Hidden Lands

Campers spread their wings and soar at Creative Kids Camp, where the emphasis is on self-expression, creativity and fun! Each camp day is spent exploring: Acting and Theater, Singing and Music, Dancing and Movement, Ceramics and Visual Art.

Creative Kids Camp
Greenbelt Community Center – 15 Crescent Road*
Ages 6-12
In addition to daily creative activities, campers enjoy supervised free swim twice per week and daily outdoor recess. To balance all the excitement and help campers to rest and recharge, we have a quiet time after recess, during which older campers can read or play a quiet game and younger campers can hear a story read aloud.

Instead of going on field trips, our campers perform in a show for parents and others to come and see.

Our show this year is Hidden Lands, which tells the story of three schoolchildren who are transported by a magic ring to an enchanted island, where they meet the powerful Phoenix and help a down-hearted prince. Imagination and sharing are the true magic they discover – and your camper will, too.

Come see five musicals in one! MAD will be returning home and celebrating with an exciting musical that’s all about musicals. It’s the old melodrama “You must pay the rent” but as five mini-musicals parodying and paying homage to American and British musical theatre legends: Rodgers and Hammerstein, Stephen Sondheim, Jerry Herman, Andrew Lloyd Webber, and Kander and Ebb. Be prepared to hear some things that sound very familiar, but in a whole new way.

Location: Greenbelt Arts Center

January 30 – February 21, 2015
Fridays and Saturdays at 8:00

One house, two eras. In 1959, the all-white community of Clybourne Park anxiously deals with the first stages of integration, while in 2009, the now mostly African American neighborhood battles to hold its ground against gentrification. As each one attempts to deal with the change, they reveal the consistency of human nature.

Ticket prices: $20 General Admission, $16 Students/Seniors/Military, $12 Youth (12 and under with adult)
