FAQ’s
-
Fall classes run from Mon, August 25 to Fri, December 12, 2025. Each program meets for 15 weeks, with options for 2–5 days per week depending on what best meets your families needs. We follow the Hays CISD calendar. All school holidays are factored into the cost of our tuition. Thanksgiving week is not included in the 15 weeks that tuition covers.
-
Yes! Just give us 3 weeks’ notice. We will provide further instruction on how to request a change before classes start. We’ll do our best to accommodate any needed changes like adding, subtracting, or switching days, including adjusting monthly payment rates.
-
Yes! We often double-cast (and sometimes even triple-cast) our shows to give more children the chance to shine on stage and to ensure they get meaningful, developmentally appropriate performance experience.
All students are considered equally for casting, but attending at least two days per week is required to be eligible for an on-stage role. This ensures each child has enough rehearsal time to feel confident and prepared. Students who attend more frequently may have additional opportunities or responsibilities, but two days is the minimum to participate in the show.
-
We offer after-school theatre programs for kids in Kindergarten through 12th grade, grouped by age and experience level:
• Youngbloods: K–2nd
• Supernova: 3rd–9th
• Ready for the World: 7th–12th (audition-based)
-
Yes! We offer after-school pickup from select local schools. You can sign up for transportation on your enrollment paperwork and view all schools and rates here.
-
All of our programs culminate in a fully staged musical or play, and every child is cast and celebrated, no matter their experience or confidence level.
If your child loves performing, we make sure they have space to shine. If they’re more interested in behind-the-scenes roles—like lighting, sound, costumes, or stage management—we offer a specialized tech curriculum and meaningful offstage opportunities.
We support each student’s unique interests and help them grow in the areas where they feel most inspired.
-
Yes! We offer a preview day option! We want every child to find the right fit. Trial days can be arranged by filling out the preview day form.

We understand life happens! Occasional absences are fine. We just ask for notice ASAP so we can plan accordingly! For extended illnesses, we may offer partial credit with a doctor’s note.
