Love theatre but see the world in colour, texture, and detail? Step into the design studio and shape the look of the show. Led by professional theatre designer Emily Friesen, this hands-on camp explores the creative heartbeat of theatrical design—where sketches become scenery, fabric defines character, and bold ideas transform the stage. Teens will dive into both set and costume design, discovering how visual storytelling builds mood, meaning, and atmosphere. Working alongside our Teen Shakespeare Intensive, students will design and help create props, set pieces, and costume elements inspired directly by the script and rehearsals. From page to stage, they’ll learn how text, character, and staging inform every artistic choice. Their designs will come to life in live performances, and students will have the chance to support the creative team backstage—experiencing the thrill of seeing their vision fully realized in front of an audience.
