    LOS ANGELES (TheWrap.com) - Rachel Griffiths is going to "Camp" it up on NBC.

    The "Brothers & Sisters" actress will star in the network's upcoming series "Camp," from "Deception" duo Liz Heldens and Peter Elkoff.

    The series, which is in the vein of cult comedies "Meatballs" and "Dazed and Confused," is set at Little Hawk Family Camp, where parents decompress with gin while teens take mischief and fall in and out of love. Griffiths will play Mackenzie, the camp's relentlessly upbeat director.

    Heldens and Elkoff are writing as well as executive producing, as are Gail Berman, Lloyd Braun and Gene Stein. NBC Universal, Carnival and Berman Braun are producing the comedy.
