Since the loss of the Lobero Circus Camp in 2009, the need for youth Circus Training has gone unanswered. Boxtales Theatre Company will fill this need! The Boxtales Circus Theatre Training is designed for past campers and anyone who is dedicated to: Acting, Acrobatics, Physical Comedy and interested in taking their performing art to the next level. This training will end with the development of a solo piece for each participant that can be used as an audition piece for future endeavors. The classes will be lead by the Lobero Circus Camp Director, and Boxtales Artistic Director Michael Andrews.
This intensive will develop a movement vocabulary to use to tell any story with the body, a proven method for creating interesting original material, strength training and partner balancing and acrobatics, performance skills,
For Circus Camp alumni: This intensive will not teach the physical skills of juggling, unicycling and prop manipulation, but will encourage individuals who have or are developing these skills to include them in the building of a character. The same will hold true for the use of musical instruments.
Boxtales Theatre Company is a professional touring company and has trained with many master teachers from all over the world. Don’t miss this unique opportunity to train with a professional in the field and find out how far you can take your dreams!
"When my son was 6, he discovered the Circus Camp but he had to be 7. He waited a year and then the age limit changed to 8. Another year's wait and he was IN! And it was like he was finally home. Thank you to Boxtales and all the wonderful souls involved (Michael, Jeff, Matt, Genevieve, Edwin, Toby, Kaia Rose and more) who took my son under their wing and believed in his voice and helped him find it and share it. Michael is right: BELIEF is the key! Thank you to all who believe in our kids!!" — Robin Rene Roe
"As a single mom, I couldn't have hoped for better role models of genuinely caring creative funny men than Jeff and Michael and Matt and Edwin and Toby. The time my son had with these programs and people will be with him always. You should be proud!" — Circus Theater Parent
