Our Teachers

KIDSTAGE hires highly trained professional artists and arts educators and provides them with additional training in child development and KIDSTAGE techniques. Most teachers have at least two years experience teaching youth in the performing arts before joining the KIDSTAGE staff. Instructors are also required to pass a Washington State Patrol check and complete the Village Theatre Conduct with Minors form and an extensive orientation before working with students. For more information, read about our instructors.

What do students do in class?

Classes use creative dramatics, music and movement, familiar story themes, games, arts and crafts, and lots of IMAGINATION to explore the fun of theatre. The KIDSTAGE class curriculums are designed to use theatre arts to encourage collaboration, teamwork and communication, respect for self and others, healthy and constructive behavior choices, as well as build self-esteem and confidence.

Can parents observe classes?

KIDSTAGE utilizes an open ear policy in our classrooms. Instructors will keep the doors cracked open during classes to allow adults to unobtrusively observe their students. However, parents are asked to stay outside the classroom, as their presence may be a distraction to other students.

What can I expect in a final class demonstration?

On the final day of class or camp, family and friends are invited to observe a small in-class demonstration that allow them the opportunity to see what students have been working on all session. Demonstrations usually include: theatre games used during the session to teach specific theatre concepts, student explanations of terms and skills learned, and a presentation of some form of a story (improvised, guided or scripted).

How can I be sure my student is enrolled?

A student is enrolled once a $50 deposit is received per student, per class. You will receive written confirmation of enrollment along with an emergency consent form to be completed and sent in with the balance. Payment in full is required before sessions begin unless other arrangements are made.

What about refunds and cancellations?

Refunds: Refunds will be issued (less $50 non-refundable registration fee) if a student is withdrawn up to and including the first day of class/camp.
Cancellations: If a class does not fill, or if something unforeseen occurs, we reserve the right to cancel a class. We will notify you as early as possible, and a full refund will be made.

Are payment plans available?

Payment plans are available to anyone who prefers to split up their balance in two or three installments. Contact the phone numbers above for more information.
