[00:00:02.640]An exercise in pretending
[00:00:04.190]to ride a roller coaster
[00:00:05.510]is a warmup for students attending
[00:00:07.390]the Triple Threat Broadway Intensive.
[00:00:09.690]This weeklong camp brings students from the region
[00:00:12.200]to campus for masterclasses in singing, acting, and dance.
[00:00:15.436](group vocalizing)
[00:00:17.480]And after more than a year,
[00:00:18.740]riding the pandemic rollercoaster, the road ahead is smooth.
[00:00:23.510]We just have been longing to get back to something
[00:00:26.270]that feels more like normal.
[00:00:27.480]And for us-
[00:00:28.313]Tony Rathgeber celebrates
[00:00:29.720]the return to activity.
[00:00:31.420]So having all these camps and conferences here
[00:00:34.000]helps keep facilities busy and operating
[00:00:37.370]over the summer months.
[00:00:38.410]It helps keep staff employed 12 months out of the year.
[00:00:41.890]And it helps bring in just a little bit of extra revenue
[00:00:44.430]that helps support all of the great programs that take place
[00:00:47.150]across campus.
[00:00:48.020]All my life I've been young,
[00:00:49.590]so I never get a turn.
[00:00:51.410]Last summer, Robbie Exstrom participated
[00:00:53.364]in the Virtual Triple Threat Intensive,
[00:00:56.020]but he's happy to be back in Lincoln learning in-person
[00:00:59.450]from professional teaching artists.
[00:01:01.580](audience clapping)
[00:01:03.920]There are some things that you just can't get
[00:01:05.420]over a screen, you know.
[00:01:06.950]And like getting that one-on-one real-life moment
[00:01:10.660]is so crucial for my success as an actor.
[00:01:14.680]Bringing students to campus
[00:01:16.180]also fulfills the University's mission
[00:01:18.610]of statewide teaching, research and service.
[00:01:21.470]And as a chance to show off
[00:01:23.410]to potential students like Brooklyn Kellenberger.
[00:01:26.308](Brooklyn sings)
[00:01:29.370]This is an amazing campus.
[00:01:31.590]Like I kind of want to go here 'cause I kind of like
[00:01:34.230]that big campus feel.
[00:01:35.900]Thousands of young people will attend
[00:01:37.610]an on-campus event this summer lifting the curtain
[00:01:40.490]on a post-pandemic return to normal.
