Camp
Much Ado About Theatre Camp (originally named Fauquier Youth Theatre Camp (FYTC)) was the brain child of Hannah Butler, Rachel Davis, and Samantha Franklin. The camp was designed as a 2 week, performance-based camp. It was set up to teach the campers about the concepts in theatre that would help them grow as performers and technicians. As the camp has grown and developed, there have been new faces to the staff, new campers, and new theatre, but overall, the camp is designed to teach through performance. Campers learn what it takes to put on a show in two weeks (48 hours of in camp time). Campers are ages 7-15 years old!

Camp Testimonals
"I have participated in two theatre camps under the direction of Hannah Butler and hope to do many, many more in the future. These camps have taught me so much and have given me the opportunity to grow beyond what I had thought was possible. Hannah truly believes in each and every camp member, and it shows the second the curtain opens. I've seen campers completely transformed from shy, quiet kids into enthusiastic, passionate fireballs of energy by week two. This camp has reminded me of why I love theatre so much. It gives me the opportunity to explore and push myself creatively while working alongside some incredible people. The thing I love most about camp is how incredibly close the cast always grows. We become a loving, caring family of actors and techies who all want nothing more than to lift each other up and create art together. I look forward to participating for as long as I possibly can."
