Registration for each First Act semester class session is done through your First Act account. To set up a First Act account, please click the Login button in the upper righthand corner and follow the prompts. Once account set-up is completed, please see registration within your account or by visiting the Current Classes page.
Classes and teachers are subject to change. When a class fills, a waiting list will be kept and students enrolled in the order that a registration was received if an opening becomes available.
For detailed class policies including dance attire requirements, see the sections below.
Our Early Bird will run from July 5th-July 31st. Registrations during this period will receive $10 off per class.
Discounts for Acting/Vocal Studios are as follows: Multi-class – $10 off per additional class; Sibling – $10 off per additional student
Discounts for Dance Studio are as follows: 2 dance classes – $40 off total; 3 dance classes – $90 off total; 4 dance classes – $150 off total. The multiple class dance discount is per person; it cannot be used as a sibling discount. You will need to call the First Act office (913-681-3318) for your discount voucher if taking more than one dance class. Note: Because we are offering a larger tiered discount for dance, this discount may not be used alongside the Early Bird Discount. The Early Bird Discount will still apply for those taking single dance classes.
While we think our tuition is a great value, we understand that it can be a daunting amount, especially for families that have multiple children in the program. We do not want to prohibit anyone from being part of a First Act. If you would like to discuss special arrangements/payment plan options, please contact the First Act office at (913) 681-3318.
These policies apply to all three First Act studios. If you have questions, please reach out to educationdirector@firstactkc.org or call the office at 913-681-3318.
