Our Sort of Thing program builds on the work we do in our other programming by allowing students the opportunity to work alongside professional theatre artists in the creation of an original musical. These programs happen at two times throughout the year, the Summer Sort of Thing and the Winter Sort of Thing.

Bring a blanket or chairs, your dinner, and your whole selves!

Join our summer outdoor musical theatre series, Summer Sort of Thing, as we once again spin a tale that cannot be imagined elsewhere! Bring your blanket, your folding chairs, and your dinner and join us at beautiful Holman Field for this amazing community event.

Through original songs and dance, the story of King Claude and his rocky relationship with his “loyal” subjects is told. Featuring the rocking anthem where our show received its title, Down With the Crown, is sure to please your young theatre-goer and the whole family!

A long time ago in a world not unlike our own, there arose a problem of royal proportions. The King stinks, and not just the under-the-arm kind, he’s really bad. Not evil, just awful, and the adults seem happy to do nothing about it. It’s up to the kids in the quiet hamlet of Blankety-Blank Bay to take matters into their own hands. But who knew revolution would prove so difficult?

The programs

Summer Sort of Thing

SSOT is a four week intensive summer camp program where students will work with profesional artists to bring a musical to life! The musicals chosen for production are shows that have already been performed in Winter Sort of Thing productions. There is no proir experience necessary for this program.

Winter Sort of Thing

WSOT is a six month intensive program where students that have attended other YACA programs can participate in the staging of a full-length musical. Students are educated further in all aspects of the theatre arts while attending organized rehearsals with professional artists for the production. The program culminates with the performance of an original student-conceived, staff-written/composed musical.
