Camps/Classes Calendar

Since the loss of the Lobero Circus Camp in 2009, the need for youth Circus Training has gone unanswered. Boxtales Theatre Company will fill this need! The Boxtales Circus Theatre Training is designed for past campers and anyone who is dedicated to: Acting, Acrobatics, Physical Comedy and interested in taking their performing art to the next level. This training will end with the development of a solo piece for each participant that can be used as an audition piece for future endeavors. The classes will be lead by the Lobero Circus Camp Director, and Boxtales Artistic Director Michael Andrews.

This intensive will develop a movement vocabulary to use to tell any story with the body, performance skills, strength training and partner balancing and acrobatics.

For Circus Camp alumni: This intensive will not teach the physical skills of juggling, unicycling and prop manipulation, but will encourage individuals who have or are developing these skills to include them in the building of a character. The same will hold true for the use of musical instruments.

Boxtales Theatre Company is a professional touring company and has trained with many master teachers from all over the world. Don't miss this unique opportunity to train with a professional in the field and find out how far you can take your dreams!

This one session of camp runs three weeks.  9:30am–3:30pm Mon–Thurs & 9:30am–12:30pm on Fridays.

Campers enjoy rustic living without the distractions of TV, computers, and telephones in a beautiful lakeside setting. Since 1933, campers and staff have returned year after year because of the feeling of tradition, community, and belonging that they experience. Nightly campfires and over twenty non-competitive activities highlight our group-based, outdoor program. Charter bus service to and from Gold Arrow Camp is available from Santa Clarita.
