Camp Super Happy Sunshine Fun



I’ve been working in an office in Sydney for sometime now. Not my usual street corner either; an honest to god office with walls and cubicles and a flickering flurescent light above my head.
I had just decided I need a side project when along came the Sydney Fringe Festival looking for shows. I could totally put on a show.

Here’s the plan: Camp Super Happy Sunshine Fun. – a summer camp for adults.
If there’s one thing I learnt from working at an America summer camp, it’s that playing like a kid is still fun.

After an exhausting looking after children, camp counsellors would retire to the staff lounge.  Did we watch TV, read a book, chat to each other? Sometimes. Other times, someone would yell “dodgeball” or “lets play sardines”, and we’d do that. Long story short, playing like a kid is a lot more fun than playing with kids.

Basically Camp Super Happy Sunshine Fun is going to be awesome and you should come because we’re going to play tunnel ball and make pirate hats.
