Session II begins October 4, please register early so you're not left out. Childsplay's great curriculum, experienced teachers, and brand new campus (including four beautiful, state-of-the-art classrooms, rehearsal rooms and a black box theater) have made Childsplay Academy the premiere choice for theatre classes in the valley. In addition to Saturday classes, this Fall we have weekday evening and daytime classes ... and classes for everyone from 18 months to 18 years.
