Recital Format:

Performers should ARRIVE in costume and full make-up 45 MINUTES before curtain time and be taken to their designated dressing room at Regis College. Please follow the posted signs. Parents are requested to settle children with their group and leave as soon as they can. Children will sit with their group and chaperones, who will supervise organized activities.

The recital is approximately 1.5 hours long. All students participate in the finale.
Children will be chaperoned backstage, where they will be able to watch a video and or video monitor of the show, and enjoy a treat after their dance while the show is in progress. Parents may pick children up in their designated classroom after the show.

MAKE-UP: Applied by parents at home. It may be worn at dress rehearsal; it MUST be worn at the recital. It should be applied heavily.

EARLY RELEASE VOUCHER FOR RECITAL:

Our recital dates are posted in November. This allows parents time to plan in advance to ensure their child's participation in the dance recital. Sometimes however, conflicts do arise. In these cases, we use a voucher system for those who need to leave early. Therefore, if your child is unable to participate in the entire performance, a voucher must be obtained from the office, filled out and returned to the office prior to May 8th. This early release voucher format is taken to ensure the safety of all children. PLEASE PLAN AHEAD.

“Babes-In Arms” Policy:

In consideration of our entire student body and their families, and in compliance with Weston Ordinance Fire Codes, we must firmly request that families with small children (infants and toddlers on laps and in carriages) make prior child care arrangements for their youngest children, as we cannot admit “babes-in-arms” to the recitals. We realize that you may wish to bring your youngest children, but we are governed by circumstances beyond our control. We appreciate your cooperation. No carriages will be allowed in the auditorium. Thank you!

Professional PHOTOGRAPHY:

Students may have their picture taken in costume by a professional photographer on Picture day at the studio, SUNDAY, MAY 16, 2010 from 10:00 pm to 4:00 pm. Click here to schedule a photo appointment

TICKETS:

There are tickets available to all performances via Internet. All seats are reserved and available on a first come first serve basis. Ticket Sale begins: Monday, March 1 at 10:00am.

RECITAL NOTE TO PARENTS:

Students have worked hard to make this performance "special". Without the cooperation and support of parents this experience would not be the success that it is for your child. As we have in the past, let's continue to encourage our children so that they will find reward in their efforts.
