Parents of Australia! Are you sick of your kids being glued to their phones?

Do you wish they could leave their devices behind forever? Well, you just may need to sign them up for Camp Reboot…

Reboot follows a group of young campers as they journey through Camp Reboot, a special new Summer Camp designed to detox kids from all forms of technology. However, things are not quite as they seem, as the campers discover a secret that could change their lives forever.

Reboot is a comedic thriller that tests the limits of a life without technology. It is a satire on our attachment to our screens but also a probing look into who really pulls the strings.

The ATYP Foundation Commission invests in work for young people to perform. Developed by ATYP and published by Playlab, we are creating a canon of work for young actors aged 10-13. This is your chance to see this exciting new Australian work before it goes on to be performed by schools and youth theatres around the country.

A performer in a blue suit stands deep in thought beside a striped tent and a large fake cactus. A handwritten “Camp Rules” sign hangs nearby under purple stage lighting.
A performer in a blue jumpsuit lies inside a striped makeshift tent, holding a microphone and peering out. Another performer lifts the edge of the tent flap to look in. A “Danger: Keep Out – Authorised Personnel Only” sign and hanging wires decorate the tent, all lit in dramatic red lighting.
Four children in pyjamas and robes gather around a glowing tower of confiscated mobile phones on a table in the dark, lit dramatically from below as they stare at the illuminated structure.
Five campers stand in a semicircle on the grass. One performer wears a large cardboard costume shaped like an oversized mobile phone, while others in bright tie-dye shirts react around them. A “Camp Reboot” banner hangs overhead.
Two young performers stand facing each other on a grass-covered stage. One wears a backwards cap and carries camping gear, while the other, dressed in white with rhinestone sunglasses, gestures as they talk.
