Please be on time, dancers should arrive in their tap shoes first. Dancers should not wear their costumes to rehersal.
RECITAL GUIDELINES AND REMINDERS:
There is NO smoking on school property. It is extremely important this law is obeyed, otherwise we may not be able to use the school in the future.
Dancers can be checked in at 2:45 at the “drop off” area - the entrance to the left of the stage (dancers will be shown this spot at rehearsal.) The backstage assistants and myself will take your child backstage. Parents are not allowed backstage as we have very limited space. If there are any problems, tears we can’t subside etc, I promise we will come find you in the audience.
PreSchool through grade 1 dancers perform in the first half of the recital. They will be allowed to come back and sit with you at the intermission. Please come meet them at the “drop off” area. Please do not leave at intermission, your dancer will be called back on stage a the end of the recital for the finale and presentations. All other dancers can watch the show until intermission and then come backstage at that point.
All dances should arrive in costume. Dancers performing in the second half of the show should wear something over their costume to cover it up.
Dancers do not need a ticket to the show.
Dancers are encouraged to take water bottles backstage. No other food or drinks will be allowed backstage.
I have tights available for purchase for $10.
One last suggestion: we use a lot of stage lights, and it can make the dancers appear pale on stage. I suggest that all dancers wear a little bit of make-up.
A final note about the recital: be prepared for the unexpected, especially with younger dancers. Dancers who were to shy to dance in front of any one all year can suddenly dance their heart out on stage, and vice versa. You never know how a child may react to all the people, lights etc. If you need to reach me on recital day, please leave me a message at 325-2707 and I will return your call as soon as possible.
