Yes, yes, yes... I know it has been ages since I wrote anything but alas, I finally am doing this now so you should be so lucky, lucky, lucky, lucky...
Since the last blog the following has happened.
1) The lower camp shows happened: This means that I managerd to write, block, choreograph(yes, with help) design and directed just under 200 child in their own shows and the Parents loved it. There is something VERY special about a parent coming to congratulate you on your work with their child when you had no idea that their kid wouldn't even sing in front of their parents at home. That their kid was terrified of large groups or that their kid "hated" theatre and now loves it because of you.
2) Visiting day happened. This is what it sounds like all the parents and grandparents and brother/sisters of the campers come to camp to hang with their kids for the whole day. 2500 people all in one place is a wee bit weird, what is weirder is meeting all the kids parents, some you realise why they are the way they are and sometimes, maybe not.
3) Activities have continued with the children and working on their little performances that they do with each other in the camp. I have also been visiting cirvus so now know how to juggle which is a lovely new 'useless' skill to have.
4) Not a lot else really, just the usual. We have hit the halfway mark and are on the downward slope which is a weird feeling to have thinking that it seemed just like yesterday that we arrived.
5) I might be moving age groups to even younger kids.
6) I will be doing this again.
7) Have fun, peace out... see you soon.
