HELLO, STAGE KIDS FAMILY AND NEW FRIENDS! WE HAVE ANOTHER ROUND OF AWESOME CLASSES TO KEEP YOUR CHILD LEARNING, GROWING, AND LAUGHING THIS Spring!

Confidence. Humility. Teamwork. Responsibility. Creativity. Empathy. Joy! Theater skills are life skills delivered in an incredibly fun, engaging, age-appropriate way. Whether your child already loves singing, dancing, and acting, or could just use an opportunity to explore who they are and make new friends in a positive environment, Stage Kids classes are a great way to keep your kiddo growing and laughing this Spring!

Stage Kids is an educational theater program that focuses on developing character. We see the value of having children develop skills in classes in addition to participating in shows.

Class Details

Class details may have been recently updated. Please review class information carefully before registering.

Questions? Email info@stagekidswa.org or call 509-663-6996 ext. 15

  • WHEN DO SPRING CLASSES OPEN? Registration for Spring classes will open on February 6 at 6pm. Some classes fill fast, so we recommend you mark your calendar!
  • WHERE DO I START? If your child is new to Stage Kids classes, they'll want to take our core class, Intro to Theater-1 (formerly Musical Theater 1). The next semester, they would enroll in Intro to Theater-2 (formerly Musical Theater 2)! Even if your child doesn't want to be on stage, this class ensures all Stage Kids have the same basic theater knowledge, skills, and vocabulary. These two core classes are prerequisites for most elective courses.
  • DO I NEED TO COMPLETE INTRO TO THEATER-1 & -2 BEFORE I CAN BE IN A SHOW?  No - kids can participate in a show WHILE enrolled in a core class. In other words, even if it’s your child's first time at Stage Kids, they could take Intro to Theater-1 AND be in the show at the same time! We offer Intro to Theater-1 & -2 on Mondays so core classes can be taken the hour before show rehearsal time. 

Alternative Instruction

Stage Kids partners with great local musical theater instructors to offer one-on-one training as well! Enrollment with approved instructors satisfies the class requirement for participation in a Spotlight Production. For recommendations and to request initial approval for your private instruction to satisfy your class requirement, please email michelle@stagekidswa.org.

Approval needs to be renewed prior to the beginning of each class session: info@stagekidswa.org.

Hello, Stage Kids family and new friends! Below you'll find information on current and upcoming shows to keep your child learning, growing, and laughing this Spring and Summer!

Confidence. Humility. Teamwork. Responsibility. Creativity. Empathy. Joy! Theater skills are life skills delivered in an incredibly fun, engaging, age-appropriate way.
