Last Summer's Camp Drama Production

This past summer our camp drama production was You’re a Good Man Charlie Brown. Based on the popular Broadway musical comedy, this “kids version” of the play still has great music, singing, and story lines. It of course features many of the characters made famous by cartoonist Charles M. Schulz in his comic strip Peanuts. There’s Snoopy and his doghouse, Linus and his blanket, and Lucy and her “psychiatrist” stand. In the story, Charlie Brown hopes to discover what it means to be a “good man,” and in the end, after many challenges and setbacks, realizes that it means doing your best. The kids at camp had a great time producing the play and performing it for the entire camp. Even a few parents of the cast members attended the performance. It was a really cute show.
