HISTORY
"My son is already looking forward to at least one Lakewood Playhouse camp next summer and is begging for TWO!" - Kontos-Baker

"This summer was impressive...from the use of sets and costumes to communication.  In addition, my child had a fantastic experience well above any others and she participated in 3 other summer camps over the last 2 years.  She felt the camp was fun and organized." - Wong

Skill Building Classes
     
     Students are asked to bring a monologue to class. (Does not need to be memorized) If they do not have a monologue one will be given to them in class. Students are asked to prepare their pieces just as they would for an audition. The instructor works on everything involved in the process: the entrance into the room, the attitude presented by the actor, the actual reading, and leaving the room. Students will have the opportunity to work with cold-reading and breaking down the “words” to fully encompass a script. Beyond the literature, an actor can land a role, or just as easily lose it, before even uttering a word from a script. The goal of this class is to help less experienced actors become more confident and better audition-ers, and help the more advanced students thrive in the industry of acting.

     The most notorious criminal in the fairy-tale world, Big Bad Wolf, is being slapped with a class-action lawsuit by the countless quirky characters he has wronged. Now, the two greatest legal minds in the Enchanted Forest — the Evil Stepmother and the Fairy Godmother — will clash (on live Court TV, no less, with Sydney Grimm as commentator!) in a trial that will be remembered forever after. As Little Red Riding Hood, her Grandmother, the Three Little Pigs and the Shepherd in charge of the Boy Who Cried Wolf testify, the wolf seems deserving of all that’s coming. But, even though the disreputable Evil Stepmother couldn’t be less interested in pro-bono work on such an obviously futile defense, Mr. Wolf makes a good case for himself. Was he born a criminal, or made one? ​

    Big Bad provides audiences of any age with a smart and wickedly funny play! The most notorious criminal in the fairy-tale world, Big Bad Wolf, is being slapped with a class-action lawsuit by the countless quirky characters he has wronged. Now, the two greatest legal minds in the Enchanted Forest — the Evil Stepmother and the Fairy Godmother — will clash (on live Court TV, no less, with Sydney Grimm as commentator!) in a trial that will be remembered forever after. As Little Red Riding Hood, her Grandmother, the Three Little Pigs and the Shepherd in charge of the Boy Who Cried Wolf testify, the wolf seems deserving of all that’s coming. Was he born a criminal, or made one? Perhaps he does deserve compassion instead of condemnation? What will the verdict be?
