- Late Pickup Policy - Students must be picked up promptly at the end of rehearsal. After a 15-minute grace period, parents will be charged $1 per minute for child care from the end of rehearsal. If a child is left at rehearsal more than 30 minutes with no communication from the parents, the student will be taken to the Torrance Police Department to await pick up by the parent or legal guardian.
- Refund Policy - Encore Entertainers has a no refund policy. Cancellation of payment may occur only if done within 72 hours of payment and must happen prior to auditions. No refunds or cancellations on or after audition day.
- Costume Rental Policy -There will be a costume rental fee of between $60-$75 per child to cover the cost of the main costume(s) used during the performances. Each child will also be required to provide some costume items, such as shoes, tights, pants, shirts, blouses, leotards, etc. (Costume fees not paid on time are subject to a $15 per week late fee.)
- Conflict/Attendance Policy-Attendance at all scheduled rehearsals is mandatory. All conflicts and potential conflicts must be listed on the audition form. Failure to list conflicts and/or missing rehearsals not listed on your conflict sheet may result in your being removed from a lead part or not placed in scenes that were staged during an unexcused absence. Examples: birthday parties, trips to Disneyland, out of town guests, etc. that come up at the last minute. Unexpected acceptable conflicts (funerals, weddings, etc.) must be cleared in advance.
- Behavior/Dress Code Policy-All cast members are required to adhere to the ENCORE Code of Conduct and to the Dress Code. Any student not in compliance is subject to dismissal from the production with no refunds given.
- Video/Photography Policy- Absolutely no videography is allowed during the performances. This is due to strict copyright laws. When permitted, professional videos will be taken and made available at an additional cost. We have a production photographer who will be taking individual portraits and production photos. These photos will be available for purchase directly from the photographer.
