Foxlight Theatre Lab

FoxLight Theatre Lab 2026 (formerly Little Foxes) is a reimagined, full-day summer theatre camp designed to inspire and develop the next generation of performers and creators. Led by professional theatre artists, the program emphasizes production-centered learning, giving students hands-on experience as they bring “She Kills Monster’s,” a full stage production to life. Every registered student will be cast, ensuring an inclusive, confidence-building experience for teens of all skill levels.

This summer, students will perform a high-energy, action-packed play that blends fantasy, humor and heartfelt storytelling. The camp is led by Talia Liccardello, award winning educator, drama director and theatre teacher at Littleton High School. With more than a decade of experience in arts education, advocacy and program leadership, Liccardello has built inclusive theatre programs at both the high school and community levels. She is dedicated to expanding access to high-quality performing arts education while fostering creativity, collaboration and artistic growth. Space is limited, making this an exciting opportunity for students to train with a seasoned theatre professional and take part in a transformative summer experience.
