Imaginorium School of Theatrical Wizardry
Ages 8-16 (or grades 3-12) |
|
Youth are invited to join us in an immersive magical world. The camp is the show, as we will be in costume and in character the whole time. Our camps teach theatre with a side of STEAMM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, Math, and Music) - so even if you're not a "theatre" kid, there's something for everyone. because incorporating all learning styles allows us to fully explore the story. The magical world of Theatrical Wizardry brings together all of the creative arts to welcome your child into a unique story called The Rainbow Path, written by Headmistress Iris Imaginoria. While most of our programs are still virtual due to COVID-19, we are bringing our 20 years of experience into a hybrid model of in-person magic...
We do things a bit differently from other theatre camps...

|
Each two-week session starts by sorting students into four unique houses, Phoenixfire, Stonedragon, Windhorse, & Waverider. Students are sorted through light by way of a magical mirror.
In their multi-age houses, they meet in common rooms for teamwork games and activities to explore the qualities of peace, hope, strength, and love, serve magical snacks to the community, and complete a service project... because we teach that the real magic in life is helping others. Together they earn house points to try to win the house cup, but learning kindness and cooperation is more important than competition. |
They also learn the magic portal spells to travel to the Wood Between the Worlds - a place with four unique areas -
- A Drum Circle for music in the south,
- Kiki's Boutique, a costume shop in the west,
- The Neverending Library in the North,
- and Milo's Armory in the East,

Wizarding Classes:
Every day, students attend intensive theatre classes with kids their own age based on national core theatre arts standards and our inclusive magical world. |
Most were written by Headmistress Iris Imaginoria (aka Jessica Gray, Artistic & Education Director of The Imaginorium) who earned her PhD in Theatre from Louisiana State University.

|
In Potions, we mix vocal and acting exercises with science experiments:
Herbology allows kids to study magical plants by making props through arts & crafts.
In Charms students learn physical acting and stage combat as the basis for cooperative wizards' duels.
In PRISM, we learn to fight the darkness of low self-esteem, fear, and self-doubt through positive social emotional skills. These help reinforce strong acting techniques.
|
History of Magic is about creating and developing their own original characters and playwriting in this unique magical world.
Magical Creatures combines movement with animal studies for an energetic class.
Transfiguration is a favorite... bringing inanimate objects to life through puppetry!
Students learn about Stage Lighting in Astronomy.
Incantations is a music class, where students learn original camp songs.
|
We will also work together to produce original short plays based on the themes. Students can choose to act or participate in the production team.
