Fun Camp is told in monologues, speeches, soliloquies, sermons, letters, cards, and lists. It’s about a week at a summer camp that tries to mold campers into more fun and interesting people. Their concept of fun is very slapstick—pranks, food fights, greased watermelon relays—but its leaders are positively evangelical about it. Along the way, you’ll meet Dave and Holly, head counselors who may or may not be getting too old for this shit, Bernadette, a Luddite chaplain with some kids to convert, Billy, a first-timer turning on his parents, and Tad, a popular dude with a Jesus complex. Fun Camp was a semi-finalist for the Lake Forest / &Now 2011-2012 Madeleine P. Plonsker Emerging Writer’s Residency Prize.… (more)
