This will be the eighth year Northern Light Opera Company has collaborated with the Indigenous community of Pine Point for a month-long Drama Camp for 8- to 13-year-olds. It doesn’t take long for kids, who were strangers, to become good friends as they create and play together. The camp is divided into three sessions: Week 1 June 19-22– Playwriting & Improv, assisted by guest artist Melanie Goodreaux, Week 2 June 26-30– Design & Song-Writing, assisted by guest artists Gina Singer and Lisa Dove, and Weeks 3-4 July 3-14— Rehearsal & Production, assisted by guest artists Jeffrey Nolan and Hawken Paul Performances will be July 14 at Pine Point Community Center and July 15 at the Armory Arts & Events Center in Park Rapids. There will be a fee of $15 each for Weeks 1 and 2 and $25 for Weeks 3 & 4. Bus transportation and lunches are provided.
