ADDITIONAL INFO:
ABSENCES: Attendance is very important. If you know in advance your child will miss a certain class because of an out-of-town absence, please let us know as it will help us plan our schedule. If you know of more than 2 rehearsals where your child will not be available, do not register your child. We have a limited number of weeks to learn a whole musical. Putting on a show is a lot of work for kids and staff and absences create problems when planning what scenes to rehearse. Please remember the end result is a show your kids can be proud of and confident with onstage. If your child misses a great number of rehearsals, we reserve the right to recast their role. Of course, we know we can’t plan illnesses - when your child is sick they can watch our rehearsal videos and practice the music posted on our class materials page. Please try to plan appointments and playdates for other days of the week. We take theater seriously.
WAITLIST: There is no charge to be on the waitlist. If you do not hear from us by the 3rd week of class there will no longer be spots opening up for the semester. We don’t reach out to waitlisted families unless a spot opens up.
SNACK: Please pack an extra snack in your child's lunch/backpack. We will have a short break after school so the kids can have a snack, go to the bathroom, etc. Rehearsals are hard work and a snack will fuel us. Thank you!
CELL PHONE POLICY: Many kids have their own cell phones or smart watches. We don’t think they are needed in theater and can distract us from creating special bonds with our cast mates. Once class has begun kids are instructed to put their electronics away in their bag/backpack. If you need to get a message to your child during class time please know they can not check their phones until the end of class. If you have an emergency message for your child or for the instructor during rehearsal please TEXT us. We will be able to see a text right away, but may not answer a ringing phone during instruction.
CLASS CANCELLATIONS: If it is necessary for our classes to be canceled we will prorate each class as a refund at $25/class canceled OR move to Zoom for as long as we need to. If we choose to do zoom classes there will be no refunds. There is no refund for classes you choose to pull your child from or if your child is absent for any other reason.
