FACILITY SURCHARGES

OUR POLICY

We are a nonprofit organization. We strive to provide low cost educational opportunities as well as low cost ticket prices to our patrons in hopes of providing the community with exposure to the arts and arts education. We do, however still need to pay the bills. As our business grows, we hope to employ more teachers, offer more classes and programs, and offer an ever growing variety of theater and performing arts related classes, workshops, camps, etc. We also hope our success leads to the ability to create another theater venue for musicals and plays in which all ages may participate. As we grow and expenses increase, we may increase prices. 

For children’s educational performance classes, there is a fee to participate. 

For adult performances, there will not be a participation fee. At adult performances, we will “pass the hat” to take contributions for the purpose of reimbursing the actors and crew for the time and sacrifices they have made to participate int he production. 

All participants in any class, workshop, camp, or performance of any kind are expected to abide by the Stage Notes Academy of Performing Arts Rules and Expectations.

All participants agree to be present and on time for classes and rehearsals (or call if they will be late), be actively engaged during classes / rehearsals, and learn the material in a timely manner. 

All participants understand that all productions are a team effort and they agree to help with “backstage” and set duties as needed. 

All participants understand that the building(s) we use are sometimes "borrowed space" and agree to help keep any facilities clean and in good condition.
