Shakespeare for Kids has become a favorite summer camp staple. 11-year old Windy Margerum has been attending for the past seven years. "It is the best camp in the world," she states firmly.
During the first week of camp, participants get to know Shakespeare, learning his history and his plays, in ways that include making puppets and masks, and going on treasure hunts.
The second week of the camp is spent in rehearsal. Each participant is given a part in a production and they spend the week preparing for the camp's grand finale, the performance.
"Everyone will have such a good time. Kids' families come and see them perform," Margerum says. "It will be the night of your life."
