Ø  * Everyone in the show should rehearse the curtain call at 5:00. Please
inform Jackie by email if your dancer has a conflict. * The curtain call
is the finale of the show when all dancers take their bow. At
rehearsal we do this first so that your dancer can leave once they’ve
danced, and not have to wait until the end. Be ready!
Ø  Please remember to bring all of your costume pieces and accessories to
the rehearsal. It’s important to practice on stage in costume!
Ø  Please be in costume and ready to dance 15 minutes prior to your
scheduled time. We will do our best to keep to this schedule and it
helps if you are ready to perform.
Ø  You or another adult should stay at the school to help your Intro to
Dance or Dance 1 dancer. In particular between 4:00 and 5:00, and then
between 7:00 and 8:30, most of our student assistants will be onstage
rehearsing their own dances and not available to chaperone. You are
welcome to watch the dress rehearsal from the audience.
Ø  Recital staff will be available throughout the afternoon to address
questions regarding the rehearsal and performance. Any remaining
tickets and tshirts will be on sale in the lobby.
