2024 LIT & Leader Dramarama Application
Camp Runs 9am - 3pm.
Leaders are expected to arrive by 8:30am and depart around 3:30pm
There are two short break times, and one longer lunch at camp. All breaks and lunches happen in the theatre space or outside and are supervised by ALL leaders.  Each Camp Leader will be assigned a group to assist throughout the camp sessions.  

The main role of the Camp Leaders and Leaders in Training is to make sure that every group member is safe and heard. We want to establish right away that the group is working together and everybody’s ideas are respected.  We want campers to feel comfortable asking us for anything.  It is up to the leaders and LIT's to inspire our campers and make camp a fun place for everyone.  Leaders and LITs will act as Stage Managers and Green Room Supervisors for the final performances of each session.
