Summer Fun Unleashed In Hilarious ‘Theater Camp’ Mockumentary At M.V. Film Center

“Theater Camp,” a riotous mockumentary, takes center stage at the M.V. Film Center. Join the side-splitting summer antics of AdirondACTS, a camp for young aspiring actors, facing foreclosure. Directed by Molly Gordon and Nick Lieberman, this Sundance award-winning gem promises laughter galore.

A Tale of Laughs and Drama

Delve into the zany world of “Theater Camp” where Troy, a bewildered Troy Award-winner, navigates the camp’s tumultuous waters as its new leader. A series of hilarious mishaps ensue as he tries to fill the shoes of his comatose mother, Joan. The film’s focus on bumbling counselors, quirky characters, and outlandish situations guarantees a rollicking time.

Adults, Kids, and Comedy

While the camp is for kids, it’s the adults who steal the show. The film shines a spotlight on Troy’s misadventures, supported by equally comical acting coach Amos (Ben Platt) and music teacher Rebecca-Diane (Molly Gordon). Brace yourself for a flurry of antics, from business-suited agent Minari’s constant phone calls to stage manager Glenn’s loony dance routines.

Camp Chronicles

The mockumentary thrives on its oddball humor. Witness Ayo Edebiri’s hilarious mishap in a dance stage combat lesson. The celebrated Juilliard School rejects, Rebecca-Diane and Amos, add to the comic quotient. A rival camp’s looming success threatens AdirondACTS, paving the way for hilarious conflicts.

Nuggets of Laughter

Prepare for chuckles as the film serves up witty exchanges. From costume counselor Gigi’s query about polyester allergies to the peculiar question of Julianne Moore’s dementia, the humor is delightfully offbeat. Nostalgic counselors recall their goofy camp memories, while young talents like Balee Bonick and Alexander Bello shine.

Grand Finale and Nostalgia

As the camp faces a grand finale tribute, the movie blends heartwarming nostalgia with uproarious entertainment. A tip of the hat to the camp’s founder, “Joan Still,” adds a touching touch. While reminiscent of “Waiting for Guffman,” “Theater Camp” stands tall with its unique charm.
