Many years ago, we worked out a Voucher System with the Lewis Family Playhouse due to the Summer Showcase selling out too quickly and some parents trying to buy tickets at the last minute.  The system has been in place for years regarding the Summer Showcase and now that we are having the Holiday Impromptu at the Playhouse, we will utilize the voucher system here as well.  Here are the quick details:

You will need a VOUCHER CODE to purchase up to 3 tickets per session/per family during the presale period.

~You can pick up Voucher Codes starting October 20th at the Front Desk

~VSPA accounts must be paid in Full in order to receive your Voucher

~You will receive a voucher code for each session your child(ren) are in – per family, not per student

Showcase Costume Measurement Week @ regularly scheduled classes
Jan 12 – Jan 17 all-day

Teachers and the VSPA Office will be taking measurements during regularly scheduled classes.  Sizes for the Showcase costumes will be assessed from the measurements taken.

If you would like to request a specific size, please fill out and return this form to the Office ASAP.


Costumes

We spend many hours selecting the costumes for each class. They are always age-appropriate and of the highest quality possible.  Each participating class will require a designated costume.  Costumes include all accessories (hats, gloves, etc.) needed, but not tights or shoes.

NOTE: No jewelry or extra bits are to be worn with costumes. This includes during dress rehearsals and performances and when class pictures are taken.

Fees and Payment

In an effort to ensure that costumes are delivered in time for school photographs and an organized distribution to our students, costume orders are placed during the end of February. Costume manufacturers do not accept cancellations or offer refunds; therefore the school does not refund costume payments. 

The estimated cost of costumes is $65- $100. Any special orders, exchanges, including extra-large sizes, may require an additional charge (determined by the costume company). Additional charges are the sole responsibility of the parent or guardian. Tights and shoes are not included.


Costume Payment

Costume payments are due by the 15th of February.  Payments are paid through automatic withdrawal from your credit or debit card account if you are signed up for this feature. Payments can be charged directly to your specified VISA or MasterCard or Checking Account.

We will also accept cash, checks, or money orders for costume payments. Please write your child’s name in the memo portion of the check. If you pay with cash, please ask for a receipt. 

No refunds will be made if a parent or guardian withdraws a child from the school after costumes have been ordered and prior to the recital. Purchased costumes may be picked up at the school during the costume distribution period and up to 15 days after the performance. Costumes not picked up after 15 days will be donated to charity.

Sizing

Costume measuring begins during the month of January, during scheduled class times. All children will be measured in order to determine their proper costume size(s). Costumes are not custom designed for each body.  They are stock sizes used by the Costume Companies.  We refer to their provided size chart to determine size.  Before the second week in February you will be required to sign a confirmation form if you prefer to size the costumes yourself. You can make adjustments on the form; however, your signature indicates that you take full responsibility for any necessary costume alterations.
