Arrival and Parking

The office of the Idaho Shakespeare Festival is at the corner of 9th and Fulton and is housed in the same building as Boise Contemporary Theater.  There is parking to be found around the area and there are two pay lots directly across the street.  Be careful about the No Parking signs, they are enforced.  Do not park in the Esther Simplot Performing Arts Complex lots – those are private parking.  You’ll see the signs.

There’s a big porch at Boise Contemporary Theater and students come in the big silver front doors, through the Lobby area and downstairs to their classes (Classrooms A, B, and C).  The Instructorst will be there waiting for their students to arrive.

As a reminder, we do not have pre or post class child care – please be prompt in picking up your student.  You can come into the Lobby of the Boise Contemporary Theater to wait for your child or pick them up outside.  The teachers will not allow any student to leave the theater porch area until you arrive.

Parent Information

Arrival and Departure
The teachers will be waiting for your student in the classrooms downstairs.  It is very important that you pick up your student ON TIME.  We are sorry but we do not have child care available for after class times.

Water & Snacks
Please send a water bottle with your student.  Acting is thirsty work!  If your child needs to have a snack, feel free to send something small and easy for him or her to handle.

Clothing
Short skirts, bare middles, tight clothing — no fun!  If the student is afraid of something showing, all that creativity will go right out the window.  Please have your student wear loose, easy-going clothing!  It’s time to play and have fun!

Observing
Parents are always welcome to visit but we ask that you participate in the class.  Younger siblings can be a distraction, so please avoid this if possible.  The park and library are close by for your convenience.

Discipline
It’s all about play and we want all our students to have lots of fun & enjoy the creative experience!   So if a student becomes disruptive instead of joining in — we just use the “time out” method & invite the student to rejoin the group when they’re ready.  However, if behavior becomes an issue, we’ll contact you to help us.
