Dancers should come dressed and ready with all shoes and accessories. Classes will have assigned seating in the audience and parents will be welcome to sit with their child. We will run combo classes in the order they will perform on the actual recital day.

 

RECITAL PICTURES

Recital pictures will be taken in the Lobby of the high school auditorium during the rehearsal. Each group will be directed into the lobby after they practice their first dance on stage to take their picture. After their picture has been taken, they will be escorted back into the auditorium where they can change shoes and practice their second dance on stage. We will have picture order details available on our website and at the rehearsal.

 

RECITAL SHOW DETAILS 

May 20th 

​

• Back Doors will open 45min prior to showtime for dancers and front doors will open 30min before the show to the public.

​

• Dancers must enter through the back of the auditorium. Please only have one guardian accompanying your dancer. All other family members can enter through the front doors 30 min. before the show. Dancers will have changing areas set up backstage, so if a male guardian is accompanying your dancer, please let us know in advance before entering.

​

• Please show up on time, dressed and ready with shoes and accessories. We encourage you to put their names on their shoes so they are not misplaced or accidentally swapped.

​

• As soon as you arrive, please bring the dancers to their designated row in the auditorium - rows will have signs with song titles and costume colors.

​

• Classes will have assigned seating in the audience and will be directed on and off stage by one of our helpers. Dancers will stay in their designated group row in the auditorium for the duration of the show. A parent is welcome to sit with their dancer if need be.

​

•     No food or drinks will be allowed in the auditorium.

​

• No flash photography or videography will be allowed during the recital. It is distracting to the dancers on stage and it’s also for the protection of our students and choreographers. We have hired a professional videographer to record the show - details on how to order recital videos will be sent out via email and will also be available on our website.

​

• We ask that all dancers and families stay until the end of the show. As soon as the show is over, dancers will be allowed on stage to receive flowers, take pictures and visit with family. The stage will be cleared 20 min after the show has ended. Please gather all of their belongings before you leave.

   

TICKETS

Recital tickets are available NOW through your parent portal and can be accessed by the public on our website. Recital seating is open and there are no seating assignments. Tickets are non-refundable and non-exchangeable, so please make sure all friends and family know which show to purchase tickets for. Tickets are only available for purchase online and will be scanned at the door upon arrival.

 

​

MAKE-UP

 

We have created a guideline for make-up for all dancers.  Stage lights are bright, so make-up will need to be a little heavier in order for them not to drown out while they are on stage.  We realize not all kids are excited about make-up so just do your best! 

 

Eyes - Eyeshadow (Browns and Natural Tones), Black Mascara, and if they let you - eyeliner 

Cheeks - Dark Pink Blush, Lipstick color is listed on the Costume/Accessories spreadsheet.

 

 

COSTUME & ACCESSORIES

 

The list below includes details about shoes, hair and lip color for each group!  If you have a question about shoes or any other details, please let you teacher know this week!  

 

Please make sure all dancers do not have jewlery on during the performance.  Small stud earrings are okay ONLY if they are necessary.  

 

If you have any questions about cosutmes/shoes/tights - please reach out to your teacher this week!  ​​​​​
