What. A. Week. 🎭💥

Last week, Festival Hall was filled with fun & laughs, music, movement, and so much creativity during our Youth Theatre Intensive! In just five days, a group of amazing youth built an original show from scratch — with choreography, scenes, and original music. Seriously… WOW.

Throughout the week, our participants dove into workshops in dance, acting, set creation, costuming, music and vocals, theatre tech, and more! It was amazing to see everyone step out of their comfort zones, try something new, and bring so much passion to every part of the process.

We’re so proud of what they created and grateful to have shared the week with such a kind, talented group.

Huge shoutout to our dream team:
🌟 Camp Counsellors: Élianne Corriveau, Éloise Corriveau , Geneviève MacDonald, Maria Kaetzel, and Ava Schmidt
🎶 Musical Director: Schroeder Nordholt
💡 Technical Director: Andrew Bing
🙌 Festival Hall Venue Staff: Trista White and Avery McBride

Can’t wait for next year and for all the future camps + youth programming to come at Festival Hall. Until then… BRAVO! 👏👏👏
