SUMMARY:Young Chautauqua Club
DESCRIPTION:Young Chautauqua with a twist for 2026 - FICTIONAL 
 CHARACTERS\n\nTo celebrate 10 years of performances in collaboration with 
 the Estes Valley Library\, in 2026 we are trying something a little 
 different!  Instead of real historical people\, this year’s participants 
 will get to become their favorite storybook or novel characters. Imagine 
 jumping into the skin of Huckleberry Finn\, Scarlett O’Hara\, or Harry 
 Potter. Perhaps you’ve always wondered what it would be like to become 
 Pippi Longstocking\, Bilbo Baggins\, or Katniss Everdeen in the middle of 
 one of their incredible adventures. Tired of being human?  Become Charlotte 
 or Wilbur or the White Rabbit! This will necessitate serious creative fun 
 with costuming! \n\nParticipating in Young Chautauqua requires a 
 significant commitment of time\, study\, and practice. In return\, you'll 
 have an amazing experience in a fun and supportive atmosphere. Participants 
 begin by selecting a character they want to embody from a familiar work of 
 literature.  They conduct an in-depth study of the storybook or novel\, 
 including a thorough understanding of the plot. They then consider the 
 character’s personality traits\, motivations\, and interactions with 
 other characters before writing an original script. Participants are 
 welcome to team up as duos or trios\, and ALL AGES ARE WELCOME! Perhaps a 
 grandparent/grandchild duo - Grandpa Joe and Charlie? The possibilities are 
 endless!\n\nThe program series ends with performances in February\, all of 
 which are open to the community. We'll gather to enjoy and celebrate your 
 great work! Sixth grade teacher and acting coach Katherine Dumont 
 facilitates this exciting adventure annually.\n\nMore information can be 
 found here.
