“JACK AND THE BEANSTALK” is a story of a young boy who traded his cow for magic beans that have turned out to be a beanstalk growing up to the sky where a giant lived with his golden harp and golden hen that lays golden eggs. “JACK AND THE BEANSTALK” is the culminating workshop activity of Kids Acts Philippines’ theater program for children from this year’s summer classes dubbed as ‘TheCampArt’.

‘TheCampArt’ is a Musical Theatre Workshop which incorporates the singing, dancing and acting abilities of the actors to create a musical presentation integrating their multiple intelligences that recapitulates the whole duration of the program. This is one of the best training grounds to hone talents, to boost confidence, to explore creativity and to develop a relevant notion of observation to different characters and personalities. This guarantees the worth of interaction among children in a very fun and unique way of acting exercises and theater games.

Children who enrolled in the program are called ‘TheCampArt’ Kids. They are taught the rudiments of theatre and given a chance to perform on the professional stage with a showcase that is adapted from classic literary children’s tale. The workshop is the training ground of Kids Acts Philippines to choose the members of its actor scholars called ‘TheCampArt’ Kid Actors Scholarship. This is an advance training program to enrich and develop focusing on the artistic need of the kids ages 7 to 12 years old and teens ages 13 to 16 years old, who are interested to become professional theater actors. This is the only or one of the best programs in the country that produces professional musical theater plays exclusively for kids and by the kids.
