In DramatiCATS (Comedy and Tragedy Stars), campers will write and perform original plays they develop. But there’s a catch – every play must incorporate the same theme, a common line of dialogue and a common prop…but no one knows what these are until the moment they are to write. DramatiCATS camper’s imaginations are challenged constantly while they create one of a kind new theatre.
