My child is going to be late/absent from class/camp/rehearsal. Who should I contact?
Email conservatory@berkeleyplayhouse.org or call 510 845-8542 ext. 376. Our education manager will pass word along to your child’s teacher.

How do I know which level to enroll my child in?
Our level 1 and basic skill classes are best for students who have not had much (or any) theatrical experience and would like to build their confidence,  acting, singing, and dancing skills and have fun! Level 2 classes are more our intermediate level classes and are made for students with some theatrical experience. Level 3 is made for our advanced students and participation is determined by audition. For a graphic representation of our class levels, please follow this link.

How can I get on an email list to receive information about class offerings and youth auditions?
Please join our email list in the box on the right of this page to receive information about all Berkeley Playhouse activities and events.

My child is on the waitlist for a full class. How do I know if he will be moved off the waitlist and into the class?
In the event that you are placed on the waitlist, you will be contacted the day before the class begins letting you know either that a spot opened up or that there has been no movement on the class list. Please do not come to the class if you have not been enrolled in the program.

How do I know when my child’s final showing is?
During the school year, the last day of the program is also the day of the final showing. Students should be dropped off for class at the usual time and the doors will open to family and friends between 45 minutes and a half hour before the class ends. For the winter break and summer camps, the final showing may take place on either the second to last or last day of the program. Times will vary based on the number of other final showings that day and available spaces. Please check the initial parent email and handout or with your teacher if you have any questions.

Who do I contact if I have more questions?
Please email conservatory@berkeleyplayhouse.org.
