GENERAL INFORMATION ON SCHOOL GROUPS

(Please see how to estimate your total cost below)

We recommend that schools have at least one chaperone for every ten students in order to guide them from/to the bus and the Playhouse and to ensure they remain organized while in the Park and the Playhouse. To support this, we allow one chaperone in for free for every 10 students attending.

Deposit - A 50% deposit is required to guarantee your reservation. A due date will be assigned when you make the reservation. The deposit is usually due 30 days prior to the performance you are attending. The balance is due the day you arrive to see the show. You will forfeit your deposit if you do not attend the performance, unless due to weather (see below) or other cancellation of the performance by the Puppet Co.

Weather - Should you school be officially closed due to inclement weather, the Puppet Co. will refund your deposit or apply it to rescheduling to the next available date of your choosing.
