  • There is no fee for the audition class.
  • Once casting is assigned, students should first check the rehearsal schedule for their role(s) on the website Calendar to ensure that they can commit to the schedule before accepting their role(s).
  • Performance fees are payable by October 1st.   View Rates & Fees for details.
  • Please inform the office before October 1st if a student is unable to accept a role assigned to them.  This allows time for casts to be adjusted, and Performance Fees to be removed from your account.
