Combining the glitz of Hollywood with the artistry of Broadway, this immersive experience offers campers the chance to step into the spotlight like never before.

  • What Awaits Your Performer:

    • Broadway Vocals Meet Hollywood Energy. Campers will sing their hearts out to Wicked’s most iconic songs, like "Defying Gravity," "Popular," and "No Good Deed." Through engaging vocal workshops, they’ll refine their range, master emotional delivery, and learn to perform with the confidence of a seasoned star.

    • Wicked Choreography Workshops: Step into the world of Oz with bold, Broadway-inspired routines that channel Glinda’s charm and Elphaba’s strength. With commercial and broadway dance focus and expressive storytelling, campers will learn choreography that connects emotion with performance in true Hollywood-meets-Broadway style.

    • The STEM of Stage Magic: Elphaba’s Gravity Lab Campers will explore how science brings stage magic to life! They’ll create glowing elixirs, experiment with

      bubbling potions, and tackle gravity-defying challenges inspired by the incredible effects of Broadway and Hollywood productions. This hands-on workshop combines creativity and discovery, giving campers a behind-the-scenes look at the magic of Oz.

Drawing inspiration from Broadway’s iconic costumes and Hollywood’s world-class design, they’ll craft Elphaba’s spellbook, Glinda’s iconic crown, and Emerald City wands with attention to detail and professional techniques. This hands-on experience will develop their artistic skills and allow them to see their creative ideas come to life in vibrant, Oz-inspired creations.
