F.A.Q.

Where is the recital?

Riverbend High School

When is the recital?

Sunday, May 31st at 3:30.

Do I need to purchase tickets?

No. Every family has paid a recital fee. Therefore, all family and friends come for free! Seating is first come, first serve! And doors will open 15 minutes prior to the recital starting.

When does my child need to arrive for the recital?

Saturday, May 30th:

Mandatory Dress Rehearsal at Riverbend High School. Dress Rehearsal is also a CLOSED rehearsal, which means no parents are allowed in the auditorium.

All Act I Dancers need to report at 11:00.

Act II Students need to arrive at 3:00.

If your child is in both acts expect to stay for a while. Your child can leave once they are done rehearsing their last dance.

Sunday, May 31st:

Recital at RIVERBEND HIGH SCHOOL

All dancers need to arrive and report backstage at 3:00. Recital starts at 3:30pm. If your dancer is only in ACT I and chooses to leave at intermission to watch ACT II, they are not permitted backstage for curtain call once they leave. I know this can be a long day for our dancers, but it is for their safety.

What make-up should my child wear?

Students 8 & younger need to wear a foundation to help with the shine from the lights, mascara, blush, and red lipstick. Students that are older than 8, need to wear foundation, blush, neutral eyeshadow (browns), black eyeliner, mascara, and red lipstick.

What should their hair be like?

All hair will be in a low cinnamon bun with a middle part.

What if my child has a fast change or needs help with a change?

You are more than welcomed to talk to Ms. Roxanne about that. She will have dressing stations set up backstage. If your child needs help in the dressing room, you can just come back real quick to help and then go back out into the audience to watch.
