At Playhouse, we believe everyone has a voice. Our youth classes are designed to build confidence, strengthen communication skills and develop a sense of ensemble and community. Programs focus on individual and collective skill development in a fun and supportive environment. Each session of classes focuses on a particular set of theatricals skills – Acting, Movement/Voice and Improvisation – and provides a rich learning experience. The class sessions build upon one another and provide a well-rounded foundation.
Each child acting class tuition includes a $25, non-refundable registration fee. Cancellations prior to the first day of class will be honored with a refund, minus the $25 non-refundable registration fee. Cancellations after the first class will receive a pro-rated refund, minus the first class and the $25 non-refundable registration fee. There will be no refunds given after the second class.
In the case of inclement weather, families will be advised via email regarding the cancellation of class. For classes at the Playhouse, we will make decisions no later than 3 hours prior to the start of class. For classes at schools, we will follow what the students' school decides. We will do our best to make up for the missed class. If a make-up class is not possible, a pro-rated refund will be provided.
Please note that school-based classes are only available for students currently enrolled in those schools. If you would like to bring Playhouse Youth Drama Classes to your school, please contact education@cincyplay.com for more information.
