TUITION: $1,000

Tuition Assistance: 

We want every student to feel welcome on our stage. To keep our programs strong amid rising costs, tuition will increase slightly this year. We understand that changes like this can be challenging, so families may use a discount code to continue at the previous rate if needed which will be made available during casting. Additional tuition assistance and work-study options are also available—please submit applications by January 20th so we can process them in time. (Applying for assistance will never affect casting decisions.) Our priority is keeping theatre accessible for all. Tuition Assistance Application Link
