Picture Day
When it is picture Day, you will want your child looking their best. They are allowed to wear small jewelry, but nothing dangly or excessive. Please remember that when they wear light colored tights, you see panties underneath, so the best thing is not to wear them. Please ask them to be "Ladies" while in their costumes so they don't get damaged. A large shirt to place overtop their costume is suitable after pictures to maintain outfit appearance. Please do not let them eat or drink while wearing them. Most are made of silk and will get stained easily. Light makeup is nice but at your discretion to brighten up their faces. Payment will be needed in advance the day of pictures. Please have your paperwork filled out completely ahead of time. The pictures will be mailed to your home.
Rehearsal Day
On Rehearsal Days, the classes will be handled like any other day in respect to rules from before.
1. Parents are not allowed in the auditorium during practices.
2. Siblings in the school must be supervised.
3. Please get the children to practice on time. This is important so we may stay on schedule. Please be sure they have bathroom break before class.
4. Please have all costume parts, and accessories, and shoes in a large zip lock bag with their name on it. Have all shoes with their name in them. They will need these to be with them for rehearsals and recital.
5. Please be patient with us. Sometimes it gets hectic and we need your full cooperation. Please don't hesitate to volunteer for something if a situation arises. You just never know what comes our way!
Recital Day
The Day of recital, we need to make sure everyone follows directions, to keep things running smoothly. We need to make things easy for the children so no one gets nervous.
1. Please have the children at the school by 2:30 so their room mothers can assemble them.
2. Parents cannot go back with the children. All parents must wait in the lobby.
3. Please let me know ahead of time if a special needs person needs to be seated before the assigned time.
4. Make sure children have their costumes on, and their hair done ahead of time. Please have stage makeup on. This should be applied brightly so their faces will shine on stage.
5. Please do not have panties on; they will be seen through tights.
6. The auditorium will open at 2:45pm, please wait patiently.
7. No picture taking during the program. Flashes distract the children. We have hired a videographer, paperwork is available now for orders.
8. Children need to stay until the end of the program for the finale. Please do not leave in the middle of the program. It is distracting to the audience. Children will be dismissed from the stage.
9. I have arranged for a florist to setup in the lobby to sell flowers for your girls!
Recital Ticket Sales
Each child will be given 2 tickets at no charge. Additional tickets can be purchased at $5 for adults and $3 for students, children under 4 no charge. Tickets can be purchased starting today. Tickets will also be sold at the door.
