Tuition Fee Schedule
An annual registration fee of $25* per student will be charged upon registration.
Monthly tuition fees are based on the number of hours each week that the student / family attends classes at Main Stage Academy. The tuition for a student or family taking only a 1 hour class each week would be $55/ month. Each additional 1/2 hour is discounted by $3.50. The discount is calculated based on each family's combined total hours of Academy and Company instruction. (Private lessons, workshops, special events and productions are not included when calculating discount.) Tuition is due on the first of each month.
The following chart shows the monthly tuition charge for up to 4 hours of weekly instruction. For each additional 1/2 hour, add $15 to the monthly tuition.

Costume fees
Academy Classes
Academy students will be required to wear the black Main Stage Academy T-shirt during Showcase performances. One T-shirt will be given to each student per year (as part of the annual registration fee). Additional T-shirts will be $15.
Performing Companies
1Due to the professional nature of their performances, and the opportunity to travel to various locations throughout the season, all students in Performing Companies will be required to purchase regular costumes each year. The Performing Company costumes include a Main Stage Academy Christmas performance t-shirt, and a costume for traveling performances. The one-time costume fees are due by December 1st and will range from $75 to $100 depending on the group.
Performers must NOT eat or drink in costumes. All female performers need their own tan tights and black leotard to be worn under the costume. This will facilitate changing in public locations. All performers will also require dance shoes specific to the nature of their show.
