COSTUME INFORMATION:

***IMPORTANT – Since COVID we have changed our regular costume procedures. Below are our costume suggestions. We want to make sure that every student has a costume so is very important to let us know if your child will need a costume & or accessories. IF your child needs a costume, please email us at: [email protected] with your child’s name, school, and sizes otherwise we will assume your child has a costume. 

ENCORE KIDS COSTUME POLICY: At Encore Kids we put the focus on students acting accomplishments rather than on elaborate sets and costumes. This keeps the cost of our program down and keeps parents from having to spend extra money on purchasing a costume.  NOTE: We do allow students the option to wear/create their own costume if they choose (nothing too fancy) We do provide costumes for students who choose not to create their own.

Please email us at [email protected]   with any questions!

Costumes are always provided for students.  We do however realize that kids are very creative, and some really enjoy putting together their own look, so we do allow students the option to wear/create their own costume if they choose to. We have a variety of accessories such as hats, vests, etc. to choose from. Note we spray all of our costumes and especially our hats.  You are always welcome to provide your own head gear. (Note we do not provide shoes or wigs)

*If your child is opting to wear any type of make-up, please apply it at home as we have very little time to get ready before the performance. The same goes for special hair styling and/or wigs. Make-up is optional and never required.

***IMPORTANT: We have a variety of costumes and accessories available for ALL students to wear. We try our best to give students a couple of options, HOWEVER we may not always have a huge variety in sizes, colors, patterns etc. for students to choose from.  We realize that some children are particular about wearing costumes and/or accessories, so we will not require them to wear the things we provide.

Because we will never force someone to wear a costume there may be times when your child is dressed in the clothing, they arrive in.

If you have any questions about costumes, hair or make-up, please email us at [email protected] or speak with your child’s instructor. If your child is wearing one of our costumes, we ask that your child come dressed as indicated below: (Note: please no logos, brand names, sports team etc. on any clothing shirts/tops) Footwear – no flip-flops, light up-shoes or high heels
