Recital Preparation   Backstage Protocol: We request parents to remain in the audience during the shows. Dedicated Adult dressing room supervision for each class of younger dancers will be provided. They will handle costume changes, etc. Dancers are NOT allowed in the audience at any time during the performance of their show. Parents may collect their dancers in the dressing rooms after the finale. We request parents to equip the younger dancers with coloring books and crayons, as well as crackers and "clear" drinks to occupy their time backstage. Dressing Room Assignments will be posted next to each dressing room door. Items to bring: bobby pins, hair ties, safety pins, makeup, comb/brush, hair spray, baby powder (for itchy sequins), costumes, headpieces, other costume accessories, tights/socks and clean dance shoes. Costume instruction sheets will be distributed to each dancer. Please refer to these sheets for specific information regarding make-up, hair, shoes, tights, etc. Preliminary copies of the program will be posted at the studio by the beginning of April. Please check these programs to: a. determine which show(s) your dancers are in; b. to check for proper name spelling and correct where necessary; c. check that there is sufficient time between numbers for costume changes and advise if you see an issue.  Volunteers Needed: Volunteer parents are needed to help either in the dressing rooms, or in the lobby on recital night. We also need some volunteers to help with misc. jobs on dress rehearsal night. If you are interested, please contact Miss Lisa. Two complimentary show tickets will be provided to each volunteer.
