| ** Please see Information below for our June 2009 Show** Our Recital this year will be on June 27th at Liberty Union High School Theatre. Recital Tickets will need to be purchased by family and friends. The cost will be $14.00 per ticket. Children 3 years and older will need to have a ticket. We will have two shows, one in the morning and one in the afternoon. Dancers will not need to purchase a ticket for the show they are performing in. The cost for the tickets will cover the cost of the Theatre and programs. Tickets will go on sale two weeks prior to the Recital. The cost will be more if purchased at the door. COSTUMES Costumes will need to be purchased for the yearly recital. Parents are responsible for the cost. If a dancer has a combination class, only one routine will be performed and only one costume will be needed. The costume price will be $65.00. We will collect the money in January after we take all dancers measurements. We will order them in February for the June Recital. We will receive them sometime in May. Some classes may require a seamstress to make the costume. If that occurs the costume price will be between $65 and $80. Please Note: If there is a balance owing on your account, costumes will be kept at studio until balance is cleared. There may be a possibility that another pair of Tap or Ballet shoes will have to be purchased for the recital only if necessary to match a costume. The $65.00 is non-refundable, however if you have purchased a costume and cannot be in the recital the costume is yours to keep. Please be aware that you may have to make alterations to your dancer’s costume. We order most costumes from Dance Costume Companies and the costumes may not be exact measurements. Tights: Tights will need to be purchased for the yearly recital. Parents are responsible for the cost. The cost is $11.00 for Child, $15 for Adult. We will measure and order approximately 2 months before the recital, around May. PHOTOGRAPHS The photo session usually occurs in late May or early June. Our photographer will come back at a later date and allow parents and family to view the pictures taken and purchase them if they want.

Rehearsal is very important for children. Some children work well without one but for the most part, if the children know what to exprect ahead of time, they are more comfortable when it comes time for the real thing. Dancers do not have to wear their costume, however please make sure their hair is up and out of their face! Your child's teacher will discuss Hair and any make-up for the show prior to dress rehearsal. Please check your packet for rehearsal line up.

There will be someone at the dressing room door to check your dancer in. Your dancer will wait in the dressing room until he or she is instructed by the Stage Manager to line up for his or her performance. If your dancer is in more than one routine and will need assistance with costume changes, you will need to get a backstage pass to enter the dressing room area and change your dancer at Intermission. After your dancer has performed on stage, he or she will go back to the dressing area. At the end of the show all dancers will take a final bow. After Recital is over the dancers will go back to the dressing room area. Parent/Guardian will be able to pick them up at that time. We take precautions for your children's safety. A sign in and out sheet will be at the dressing room door at both rehearsal and recital. Under no circumstances are dancers allowed to sit in the audience. Very important things to remember............................ Always....... put your dancers name on the inside of his or hers costumes. If your dancer is performing more than one routine, it is best to have the other costumes and accessories in a garment bag or dance bag. This bag should also have their name on it along with the class day and time. Gloves, socks, jewelry and other accessories should be put into a zip-lock bag with your dancers name on it and stored inside their garment bag. Always have your dancer eat light before recital. The heavier the meal the more zzzzzzzzz he or she will be. Recital Etiquette There is no food or drink allowed in the Theatre No Video cameras or FLASH PHOTOGRAPHY during show. You can take pictures during the show without flash. Dancer's become very distracted from the flash, especially the little ones. At the end of the show(s) when all the children are on stage for their final bow you may use the flash. Video taping will be allowed at rehearsal only. For your convenience we have a professional company filming the shows, and you may purchase a DVD. Please check your packet for order form. Please remember if you need to enter or exit the Theatre during the shows, do so in between performances as a courtesy to others. The door opening and closing is a big distraction to the dancers on stage and the person getting up and down during the performance is very distracting to the audience. Remember, they could be watching their child on stage and won't be able to see them. If baby is unhappy and crying, we ask that you please step outside for a few minutes to quiet them down.
