About This Product

A Fun Play: Camp Wanna Be

A Fun Play: Camp Wanna Be is a theatrical resource specifically designed for classroom use. This versatile play features 20 roles and is perfect for students in upper elementary grades. The play's storyline follows a group of children: girls traditionally at a girls' camp and boys traditionally at a boys' camp and how they love to tease each other and, to outsiders, just don't get along. As the play evolves, it shows how children, no matter the obstacle they encounter, can indeed problem-solve a situation that, ultimately, brings out the best in everyone so it is a win-win situation. In this play, the girls and boys bond over a common love of baseball! And, in doing so, the camp truly earns its name...Camp Wanna Be!
