Youth Musical Theatre Classes FAQ

Registration 

I cannot find my email with the welcome packet. Where can I access it? 

Please find the Youth Musical Theatre Classes – Spring 2025 welcome packet here and under resources on the Homepage. 

What is the difference between the price types “Class – Spring and “Class – Accommodation”? 

The Phoenix Theatre Junior Company is an inclusive environment, and we have specialized staff who provide accommodations in the classroom through our partnership with the Southwest Autism Research and Resource Center. To provide an inclusive online registration experience we have included the option to select the desire for accommodations at checkout online. Both “Class – Spring and “Class – Accommodation” are the same program and within the same classroom. 

What if the class selection I want to register for says “Sold Out!” is there a waitlist I can get on? 

Classes are selling quickly so it is entirely possible that you may have seen a “Sold Out” notification when registering. Please complete the form here and if a spot opens in your desired session, you will be contacted.
