Most classes require some memorization of material outside of class.  Students  may be required to provide individual items of apparel including shoes, leotards, tights or "street clothes" such as blue jeans, t-shirts, black pants, shoes etc. Costuming fees  go toward defraying expenses for costumes provided or purchased by Young Artists, Inc., and remain the theatre's property.  Proper shoes are required for dance class participation. In case of instructor illness or inclement weather (we generally, but do not always, go by the public school systems' closings since sometimes bad conditions in the AM have cleared before class time) qualified substitute instructors and/or make up classes will be offered. Please contact us with any questions.   Students not picked up within 10 minutes of scheduled class time will be charged a $15 late fee. The 10 minute courtesy time is extended once only per student during the semester.
