EPAC WELCOMES BACK
CENTER STAGE SUMMER
THEATER CAMP DIRECTOR!
“MY DAUGHTER ABSOLUTELY LOVED
THE WHOLE EXPERIENCE. IT WAS
THRILLING FOR HER TO BE ABLE TO
CREATE AND PERFORM IN THE 3
PARTS OF THEATER.”
At the end of each week, we will have an informal
presentation for the parents showcasing the
campers’ progress.
At the end of all four weeks, we will put the show
together for a public performance.
Please note it is not required for campers to
perform in the final show to attend camp or
participate fully in each week’s activities.
The Ephrata Performing Arts Center is proud to
announce the return of Irving I. Gonzalez as Camp
Director of our 2015 Center Stage Summer Theater
Camp. Irving’s on-going success with the Kids4Kids
Series has proven to provide young artists a
creative outlet for exploration.
Irving has used his theatrical experiences and
knowledge while working as a Recreation Program
Manager in the fields of geriatrics, individual
developmental disabilities, and other aspects of
adult/student development. He also has practical
experience as an instructor and theater coordinator
for the Reading Bureau of Recreation, where he
worked for seven years. Irving plans to bring all of
his skill and knowledge to bear in the development
and practical application of EPAC’s Summer Theater
Camp curriculum.
All Campers performing in the final show on
August 1 will have a run-through rehearsal on
the day of the performance beginning at 9 a.m.
Performance starts at 3 p.m.
