Based on the beloved story of Wicked, this production explores the untold tale of Elphaba and Glinda, two witches with very different destinies , and how their unlikely friendship changed the land of Oz forever. While the characters may be familiar, the perspective is fresh: filled with heart, humour, and high-energy performances.
Behind the scenes
Under the guidance of professional directors, choreographers, and vocal coaches, the campers have just five days to learn lines, master songs, perfect choreography, and bring their characters to life. And they’re rising to the challenge with passion, focus, and plenty of fun.
Character Workshops
Throughout the week, the young cast takes part in daily rehearsals, character workshops, vocal warm-ups, and team-building games, all designed to build confidence, encourage creativity, and foster a love of performance. From learning harmonies to staging dramatic scenes, every camper is given a chance to shine and grow, both onstage and off.
The final performance delivered on every promise with dazzling musical numbers, heartfelt scenes, and that unmistakable spark of live theatre that only young performers can bring. Families and friends were truly enchanted as the young cast transported the audience to a world of magic, courage, and unforgettable friendship.
