Imagine the thrill of performing "All Shook Up"

after only 8 days of rehearsal!

 

That's exactly what our musical theatre campers will be doing this year!

 

This summer at Interprovincial Music Camp, you can be a part of an exciting musical theatre performance! Students will learn by doing as they are directed and coached by the pros in acting, singing, movement and some basic dance. Workshops and discussions with a guest musical theatre professional will help aspiring young performers interested in learning more about "what it takes" to pursue a career in Musical Theatre.

 

The major portion of the week will be devoted to practical work, rehearsal and preparation for the public performance. Students who are very dedicated and prepared to work hard are encouraged to enroll in this program. The satisfaction and thrill of achieving a creditable performance within an 8-day period will forever be source of great pride to all who participate. 

 

All Shook Up

Set in 1955 in Middle America, "All Shook Up" presents a tangled story of romance, comedy, and rock n' roll! When leather-jacket wearing, guitar-playing, motorcycle- riding rebel Chad rolls into town, the locals don't know what to make of him. Within 24 hours Chad has the dull town turned upside down when he challenges everyone to wake up and start living again. Natalie, a lonely young girl who is an expert mechanic, works in her father's garage but dreams of hitting the road on her bike and finding a new life in a town that's not so "square." That is, until Chad comes to town and she falls instantly in love with him. Chad spots Miss Sandra, the attractive museum proprietress, who wants nothing to do with a guitar-playing roustabout. Natalie disguises herself as a boy, in attempt to get closer to Chad, catching the eye of Miss Sandra. In fact, everyone on the stage is in love with someone else, who either doesn't know it or doesn't return it.

 

Based on the book by Joe DiPietro, "All Shook Up" takes inspiration from not only the song's that made Elvis famous but also Shakespeare's "Twelfth Night." Chock full of laughs and nostalgia, "All Shook Up" is sure to make you leave the theater with a smile on your face. Featuring toe tapping tunes like, "Jailhouse Rock," "Blue Suede Shoes," "Devil in Disguise," "C'Mon Everybody," as well as crooning classics like, "Don't Be Cruel," "Heartbreak Hotel," and "I Can't Help Falling in Love."
