Year End Recital
The opportunity to perform in a recital is an exciting, empowering and confidence building part of the training process. This is where we love to watch our students of all ages and abilities learn about the theatre, rehearsals and teamwork while they enjoy the opportunity to showcase their skills in a professionally run production. Recitals are a wonderful way for students to showcase the results of their hard work and for family and friends to join in the pride of their achievement. We love giving all students the chance to perform for their family and friends in this supportive and fun environment and encourage even our youngest and newest performers to be involved.
If you have an unavoidable conflict with our recital dates and your child will not be participating, please notify our office as soon as possible so your teacher can plan accordingly.
We split our school into four separate casts:
Preschool – All Kinder Combo, Kinder Ballet classes and a few competitive soloists.
Aerial – All Aerial students.
Show A – 50% of our 5-17yr classes.
Show B – Other 50% of our 5-17yr classes.
Each show will perform at different days and times, see dates and times below. Our recital casting coordinator does an outstanding job each year ensuring that our casts are as balanced as possible, while also doing their absolute best to ensure dancers who are in more than one performing class are only cast into one or two Shows. We cannot guarantee that siblings will be accommodated into the same cast, although we do our best.
Before our big recital week, we hold rehearsals at the theatre so dancers can get comfortable on the stage, try out their costumes, work out any undergarment/shoe/hair issues, practice their dance routine a few times and have the most magical bonding experience with their dance friends. Recital photos will be taken during the same time as your child’s scheduled rehearsal. Dancers will first be ushered into the Green Room where their group and individual photos will be taken. No parents are allowed inside the Green Room during photos. After photos are taken, they will go backstage for their stage rehearsal. Each class’ photo and rehearsal time takes approximately 30 minutes total.
Our Recital Handbook is released February 1st. It includes absolutely EVERYTHING you need to know about our recital preparations and events. We ask that you stay tuned for the release of our Recital Handbook, which we’re sure will answer all of your burning questions.
