Daytime Theatre Program FAQ’s

Yes! If your group wants to attend together, we recommend coordinating before registering to ensure enough space is available. Once you’ve chosen your schedule, email us at info@burchfieldtheatre.com so we can reserve spots for your group and provide a group discount code. Group enrollment is first-come, first-served, so booking early is the best way to guarantee you’re all together.

Fall daytime classes run from Mon, September 1st to Fri, November 21st, 2025.

With final performances on Friday, Nov 21st and Sat Nov 22nd.

Program meets weekly for 12 weeks, with options for 1 or 2 days per week.

We offer daytime theatre programs for kids ages 4–17, with multi-age groups that let younger and older students learn and create together.

Our Monday group consists of children ranging in age from 5-16.

On Tuedays, we have a smaller group of younger children, age ranges 5-8.

All of our programs culminate in a fully staged musical or play, and every child is cast and celebrated, no matter their experience or confidence level. If your child loves performing, we make sure they have space to shine. If they’re more interested in behind-the-scenes roles, like lighting, sound, costumes, or stage management, we offer a specialized tech curriculum and meaningful offstage opportunities. We support each student’s unique interests and help them grow in the areas where they feel most inspired.

We understand life happens! Occasional absences are fine. We just ask for notice ASAP so we can plan accordingly! For extended illnesses, we may offer partial credit with a doctor’s note.

When you choose the monthly plan, you’ll pay a $175 deposit at registration to secure your child’s spot. The remaining tuition is split into three equal payments, charged automatically on September 1, October 1, and November 1. These payments are processed through our secure system (Stripe or Square) as a subscription, using the card you place on file.

If you cancel before the program starts, we’ll refund your tuition minus a $175 non-refundable portion (or cancel future payments if you’re on the monthly plan). After the first day, tuition is non-refundable except in rare cases of documented medical emergencies. You’re welcome to switch days at no cost if space is available. You can also add a day for an adjusted tuition price, but we can’t reduce days or lower tuition once the semester begins.

Yes! We offer a free preview day so your child can experience our program before committing for the semester. A preview day is like a drop-in— your child joins us for one regular program day to meet the instructors, participate in activities, and get a feel for our theatre community.

You can also request a private tour of our facility to meet staff, see our rehearsal spaces, and learn more about what we do.

To schedule either option, email info@burchfieldtheatre.com in advance so we can reserve a spot. Preview days are subject to availability and must be scheduled ahead of time.

Yes! This is a structured drop-off program. Parents are welcome to come in for the first few minutes if it helps their child settle in, but all instruction and supervision is provided by our staff during program hours.

Absolutely! If your schedule allows, students are welcome to enroll in both our daytime homeschool program and our afterschool program. Each program works on different material, so they complement each other and give kids even more opportunities to perform and learn.

Tickets are $15 for general admission. Tickets can be purchased at burchfieldtheatre.com/tickets and will be available for purchase after September 15th. Seating is limited, so advance purchase is encouraged.
