Wonderland Performing Arts is located at 2807 Johnston Street, Lafayette, LA 70503 (in the South College Shopping Center, next door to Osaka).

Classes begin with students in Kindergarten and continue through 18 years of age.

Yes! Students will learn specific skills each session based on the class in which they are enrolled. Young children thrive in environments of repitition and routine. Older children are ready for challenges and more variety. We are able to report progress using milestone rubrics periodically and upon special request.

Teachers are running from one class to another, so approaching them between their classes is not allowed. Doing so will keep them from their other students and obligations. Class's BAND Group in the BAND app for communication with teachers.

Wonderland office hours are Monday-Thursday 10 am - 3 pm. You can always reach us by email at info@wonderlandperformingarts.com. We will get back to you ASAP.

The answer to this question varies depending on the class a student is trying to join. We accept registration through the school year for some classes. If it is not a good time to jump into a class, we will notify you and try to accommodate you to the best of ability.

We have two sessions per year, Fall and Spring. The fall session is September - December, and the spring session is January - May. We hold camps during Thanksgiving, Christmas Holidays, Spring Break & Summer. Special Workshops happen periodically, year-round.

Join the waitlist if a class is full! A waitlist lets our Wonderland staff know that a class needs an additional section added to our schedule. Once there are enough students on the waitlist we can open another class and accommodate all interested students.

Yes! If you are unsure of the class, your child may attend their first class with no obligation to join! We require this be done within the first few weeks of the session. It is difficult for a child to "jump in" to an established class. If you have questions about joining a particular class later in the year, just reach out! Fill out a contact us form and we will help you!

Yes, the dress code is listed in the parent handbook.

Classes are open to certain grade levels therefore all students are similar in age. Wonderland cannot guarantee the ages of students who enroll in a class.

Start by finding classes based on your child's grade level. Reach class titles, days, times, and class descriptions carefully. If you still need help deciding, reach out to us via our contact us form.

Students are placed in class by grade level. Your instructor will reach out to you if they recognize your child should be in a different class level.

Each child is unique! Their age, maturity, dedication level, and readiness are all factors to consider when choosing classes. If you need further assistance or guidance, we are here to advise. Reach out via the contact us form on our site.

No. Students must audition to participate in our stage productions. Upon being cast in a production, a student must be enrolled in a least one skills-based class to remain in the production.

Yes, we charge $30 for a 30-minute in-person lesson.

Once enrolled in a class, you will be asked to join the specific BAND for your individual class. All class materials will be uploaded in your BAND group!

Your full tuition amount is posted in your Parent Portal upon registration. You can pay the full tuition amount if you like. If no payment is made, tuition will be charged monthly, on the 5th of each month, during the session (Fall: September-December; Spring: January-May).

When you enroll in a class you are committing to the entire session. We highly discourage withdrawing from a class before the session ends. Students are learning valuable skills and are usually preparing a performance piece. When a student drops, it affects the entire class. We do lots of collaborating in class, so if your child leaves mid-session, another student is losing his/her scene partner, dance partner, singing partner, etc.

If you have considered your commitment obligations, and still need to make the decision to withdraw from class, you may do so by submitting a 30-day written notice to info@wonderlandperformingarts.com. No withdrawal requests made in-person to the staff of Wonderland are considered appropriate or applicable. The remainder of your student’s class tuition is due upon withdrawal.

Showcase is a chance for each class to show off the skills learned throughout the session to family/friends! We have Showcase at the end of each session.

Yes! All students participating in classes are required to perform for our end-of-year Showcase. You will be given the date ahead of time, so make this a priority for your family. If a student does not perform, their classmates are without a member of their group, and their absence hurts the rest of the class. Participation is essential to building self-discipline, self-accountability, teamwork, and reliability which are of utmost importance in the arts and in life.

You may register for a spot in our productions. Cast sizes are limited! Once enrolled, you will get more information about auditions for role placement.

Any student may audition for our kid, pre-teen, or teen productions. If they are ready for this type of experience, if there is space in the cast, and if the family agrees to all of the requirements, the student will be admitted into the production.

KIDS production rehearsals are Wednesdays evenings, 6:00-7:00 pm, and some Saturday mornings. Pre-teen Production rehearsals are held on Tuesdays, 6:00-7:30pm and Sundays, 3:00-7:00pm. Teen Production rehearsals are held on Mondays and Thursdays, 6:30-8:30 pm.

All conflicts should be listed on your audition form. We ask that you only miss due to illness or emergency. When a cast member is not at rehearsal it is very difficult to rehearse any scenes or choreography without them. 3 or more unplanned absences in one session may result in being removed from the production.

Yes. We require all production members to be enrolled in at least one skills-based class.

No, private lessons do not fulfill your skills-based class requirements.
