I work with an educational theatre company, and we are planning our upcoming summer camps. In the past, we've done all musicals as our summer camp productions, but this year we are also doing a non-musical play. I want it to be obvious on the registration form that this camp is non-musical play, but is also more than just acting. So, two questions:
What is a better way to say "non-musical play" or "straight play" other than just play? I want it to be really obvious to people that it is a non-musical, but saying non-musical play bothers me. Is there a better way to say this?
What is a good name for a summer camp that will involved acting in a play (non-musical) and also learning about other parts of theatre: directing, design, etc. We also have a Musical Theatre Camp this summer, so calling this one "Theatre Camp" seems boring and vague. And "Acting Camp" doesn't work, because it's not just acting. I want something interesting and creative to call it.
