And this summer's Performance Series is: The Lion, The Witch, and The Wardrobe!
The Pevensie children (Peter, Susan, Edmund, and Lucy) discover a wardrobe that leads to magical land of Narnia, a frozen land terrorized by the White Witch.

It will be fun, but it won’t be easy. This camp will culminate with a performance on the last day at 2:00pm.
Shakespeare's goriest work, Titus Andronicus, follows a Roman general returning home from war with Queen Tamora as his prisoner. After Titus sacrifices her son, Tamora seeks her revenge.

Four of the five winning children are insufferable brats, but the fifth is a likeable young lad named Charlie Bucket, who takes the tour in the company of his equally amiable grandfather. The children must learn to follow Mr. Wonka's rules in the factory — or suffer the consequences.
