That'll Learn Ya! (Presented by Something New Youth Summer Camp)

The little Western town of Possum Trot has been under a gypsy spell for two hundred years, a spell that turned the whole village into nincompoops who are so clueless they sweep with the wrong end of a broom and put themselves in J*il. They've never been smart enough to progress with the rest of the world. Seymour Justice, the guilty gypsy's great-grandson (seven generations later), wants to break the spell once and for all. His perseverance pays off when he and his best friend, Edmund, finally stumble upon the lost village. The secret to breaking the spell is buried in a metal box somewhere in the town. So the search is on and Seymour and his buddy seek the citizens' assistance—such as it is! If the spell isn't broken by midnight, not only will the town remain in the dark cave of ignorance, but Seymour and Edmund will become nincompoops too, and consigned to remain in Possum Trot for the rest of their lives. Silly situations, one-liners and sight gags galore are all rolled into one funny misadventure.

This show is presented by our Something New Youth Summer Camp program of young actors 10-16. Participants were responsible for ALL aspects of the show including acting, technical design, costuming and set build.
