Campers create an original science fiction-inspired performance by blending Pig Iron's acclaimed devising theater techniques with hands-on STEM activities.
The Science Fiction Theatre Camp is a week-long summer program where campers aged 8-10 transform into theater-makers and inventors. Utilizing Pig Iron's unique devising and creation techniques, participants will collaboratively develop a short, original performance inspired by science fiction. Activities include improv games, character development, and crafting scenery and costumes through a process of collective, on-your-feet writing. The camp emphasizes making connections between artistic and scientific processes, highlighting observation, experimentation, and play. Each day incorporates theater and movement games, creative work on the performance, and engaging STEM activities that blend science with creativity. The week culminates in a performance for families and friends.
Each day, campers will engage in theater and movement games, work on creating their original performance, and participate in fun STEM activities that combine science and creativity.
This camp is ideal for children aged 8-10 who are interested in exploring their creativity through theater and science, and who enjoy collaborative, hands-on learning.
