Especially if you are referring to children's workshops/classes, I would
think parents would want to extensively check out ANY workshop, regardless of
whether it costs hundreds or dollars or is free. As for a "casting
director," unless you're a stage parent or have a child with profressional
aspirations, I'm not sure I see the relevance of that. Most of the people I know whose
kids are taking acting classes are doing it for fun, even the ones who have
already performed semi-professionally. For cihldren, I'd say the most
important thing is a sympathetic teacher who works well with kids, gives them
confidence and is able to impart a sense of the teamwork that is one of the
greatest benefits of theater. If you've got kids in the professional pipeline
and feel you were promised something careerwise that certain classes couldn't
deliver, then I understand your dismay. It always pays to do research and
make sure that what you are getting (or what you are getting for your kids)
matches your/their particular needs.
