 7.  BACK STAGE MOMS & DADS – If you would like to volunteer to work in the dressing rooms please sign up

at the front desk by Saturday 5/5/12.  I will notify you if I need your help.  Back Stage helpers DO NOT need a ticket & are not permitted in the audience during the recital.  No one is permitted back stage without a pass. 

 PLEASE NOTE…THE FOLLOWING CLASES ARE CONSIDERED “BABY” CLASSES:

Mon 12:30 & 1:15 T/J
Tues 12:45 & 1:30 T/J 
 Wed 2:00 T/B  -  Thurs 3:00 T/J  -  Sat 11:30 T/J

What this means is that all “Baby” moms will receive a pass to enable you to enter back stage at any time to check on your child.  These classes will be performing BOTH their numbers in the SAME act.

You must have your child back stage at the beginning of their act with both pairs of dance shoes labeled with their name.  A teacher will be with them at all times.  Remember, most children are better without their mommy’s!  After they perform BOTH NUMBERS, you take them into the audience to watch the remainder of the show.  They will receive a trophy before they leave back stage.  THEY DO NOT NEED A TICKET TO SIT ON YOUR LAP HOWEVER IF YOU WANT TO BUY A SEAT FOR THEM YOU CAN.

Estimated show time…2 hours! 

IMPORTANT REMINDERS
  • Videotaping is strictly prohibited.  Professional videos will be available for purchase at the show for $50.00.
  • Children must arrive ½ hour before the recital begins in full costume with all their dance shoes labeled with their name.  Parents are to drop children off at the back stage door upon their arrival.  At that time children will be escorted to their dressing room & supervised by staff members.
  • Children will be released directly off the stage at the end of the recital one class at a time (with the exception of “Baby” classes).  We will clear out the audience & ask that one parent per child remains to safely escort their child out of the theatre.  It is imperative that we have 100% cooperation.
  • All children must remain BACK STAGE the entire recital.  At no time will performers be permitted to leave the back stage area.  A video monitor will be set up on a movie screen displaying the show for them to view while waiting to perform.  All students (with the exception of the “Baby” classes) will take part in the finale & at this time will receive their trophy then be released to their parents.  

 

     If you have any questions regarding this information , my staff & I will be more than happy to assist you in any way that we can.  We are all looking forward to another incredible show.  Thank you for your continuous support.
