Recital Reminders!
Recital is just a few short months away so here are some updates and reminders so you and your dancers are prepared! We have sent out the recital packet that should answer any questions about tickets, timing, and apparel.
LOCATION: Warren Tech West Campus
DATES: June 8th - 10th
COSTUMES
As we get closer to recital, here are some good reminders for when you are given your dancer’s/your costume.
You only get ONE Costume - take care of it! It cannot be replaced!
Hang it up in a safe place so it does not get wrinkles before the show!
Please, Do Not wear your costume until picture day or the day of recital!
TICKETS
All families can have 4 tickets per show their child is dancing in for the initial purchasing phase. We hold two presentations of each show so you can choose to only attend one (they will both be the same, we suggest this option!) and buy all four to that presentation, or you may split it between the two presentations. If your dancer is in two shows, or you have siblings who are in different shows, you may purchase 4 tickets to each show, not each showing.
After the initial ticketing, which we use to ensure all families have an opportunity to get tickets, we release all restrictions and you may buy as many tickets to as many shows as you would like. This will occur on May 24th so make sure to reserve your initial 4 before that to ensure you can see your dancer!
Store Updates!
We are now selling Ballet, Tap, and Contemporary shoes! Additionally we have added tights in all sizes in both tan and ballet pink! Make sure you have all the proper gear for the upcoming recital, including the right colored shoes and tights!
With recital right around the corner make sure all of your gear is in good condition!
Teacher and Staff Highlight!
Each month, we will do a teacher or staff highlight so you can get to know our studio’s team better! For the month of May we had the pleasure of getting to know Miss Isa.
