Pied Piper Players

1 Camps: Pied Piper Players offers 1 and 2 week full day camps with 4-6 sessions over the summer and sessions over October, December, February, and April school Breaks. Each camp has 8-16 participants of varying ages and casts, rehearses, prepares sets and costumes, and puts on a final performance at the end of the camp. 2 Mainstage Programs: Our 2 annual MainStage shows at PPP are full-scale musical theater productions featuring elaborate sets, high-energy dance numbers, and casts of 50 or more local Bay Area performers aged 6-99+. MainStage productions typically run for two weeks, with evening and matinee performances Friday through Sunday of each week, and are staged at the 600-seat Bayside Performing Arts Center in San Mateo. In PPP MainStage shows, cast member families and community members come together to build sets, sew costumes, make props, paint and more in preparation for every show. These incredible, hands-on experiences are not only fun for the whole family, but help make PPP shows truly special, community productions. 2023 saw ~70 performers in Seussical The Musical and ~70 performers in Wonka! 3 Classes: Throughout the Winter, Spring, and Fall, Pied Piper furthers our mission of theater education with a series of classes meeting weekly for sessions of 6-12 weeks. Classes have 6-16 participants and range from tap to improv to acting to vocals.
