Product reviews for Kamp KAOS

"'Kamp KAOS' is an excellent middle school play. It features a fun plot, great characters, and well-written songs. It is easy to involve a lot of actors and crew (we had 50 in our company). The songs are fun to choreograph. The props are easy enough to assemble. Our audiences loved the show." -- C.E., Director, Dickson Middle School, Dickson, TN

"This was the first musical I directed. Needless to say, I was very nervous about doing one. However, the lyrics and melodies of the musical numbers were easy enough for novices to learn and perform while still sounding clever and thoroughly entertaining to the audience. The set was simple to create, and the props were easy to obtain. My students definitely had a blast performing this musical, and parents and school staff were all thoroughly impressed by the hilarious story line. I would recommend this play to any middle school theatre. We will certainly perform this again a few years from now. It was a complete success!" -- A.H., Southside Middle School, Muncie, IN

"This was my fifth year doing the after school play in my building, and this was by far the best one we've ever done! The script allowed every actor to have their chance to shine on stage and everybody got to be a lead. The cast size was super flexible and worked wonderfully for our needs. My audience agreed that this was a hilarious show and a great experience." --R.L., Scripps Middle School, Lake Orion, MI

"Our audiences loved this musical and really got all the humor. I was surprised at the depth of appreciation from both the audience and cast because this musical does not really have as deep a message as many often have. In particular, the audience really loved watching Wally being manipulated while he was out." Kamp KAOS was very easy to stage with just one colorful set. We coordinated the colors of the campers' t-shirts with corresponding flags to give the effect of students being assigned to groups. The flags corresponded to each letter of the KAOS call sign-- K, A, O, and S. The students were responsible for bringing in most of the props--the general accoutrements of summer fun like pool noodles, rafts, tennis racquets, and sleeping bags. We left our set a bit unorganized since it is Kamp KAOS after all." -S.D., Kennedy Middle School FAME, Cupertino, CA
