The uniqueness of the project lies in the implementation of the principles of theater pedagogy in teaching bilingual children at a summer theater school.

Classes are taught by theater teachers and specialists with experience in theater work with children and adolescents in America.

It is expected to work with children and adolescents in the following areas:

• Acting
• Stage movement
• Musical theater
• Vocal and musical classes
• Set design

Participants will study in regular groups, but will have the opportunity to study with each specialist. At the end of the school program, final shows of all groups will take place.

All students are expected to: BE RESPECTFUL to everyone and everything. Respect is the thing that governs every artistic discipline. Students who are truly motivated to embark on this journey must realize that this business is built upon RESPECT. We expect that you will respect the students, staff and facilities at all times.

While we can’t expect to tell you everything that you can and can’t do, the following are guidelines for appropriate behaviors:

• Arrive early and fully participate in all classes, rehearsals, and performances.
• Behave politely and maturely at all times.
• Follow all safety guidelines set out by counselors and staff.
• Respect property at all locations.
• Treat students and staff with respect at all times.
• Fully participate in a daily clean-up of rooms as assigned by counselors and staff.
• Store all over the counter medications and prescription medications with the nurse, who will direct the administration of these drugs. This includes aspirin, acetaminophen, and ibuprofen, etc.

The following behavior will NOT be tolerated:

• Continuous disruptive or destructive behavior.
• Bullying or violence toward other students or staff.
• Being in any campus buildings unattended, including dorms, without permission.
