We need to get costumes ordered and underway, deposits for
theater and scenery rental paid, etc. If you need more time,
please speak directly to Mrs. Day. All families are required
to volunteer in some capacity (see audition form), if you absolutely
cannot or will not pitch in, then there is a $75 opt out fee.
The volunteer position assignments will be posted in early May.
If you are unclear about your duties please speak directly to
Mrs. Day or the volunteer coordinators from the guild. It is
VERY important for the show to run smoothly that everyone know
and do what they are supposed to be doing. ONLY backstage volunteers
will be allowed backstage and in the dressing rooms once we
get to the 30 minute call. If you are uncomfortable with leaving
your dancer under someone else’s charge then you should
sign up to be the supervisor for their group.

REHEARSALS:
All rehearsals are required (see rehearsal schedule). It is
also required that all dancers maintain the following MINIMUM
technique attendance-prepertory levels 1 class/week, academy
levels 2 classes/week, company levels 3 classes/week. If you
must miss a rehearsal you need to call the studio ASAP. Dancers
are responsible for knowing any missed choreography and must
catch up by meeting with a fellow dancer or a private lesson
BEFORE the next rehearsal. The director reserves the right to
cut dancers without refund for poor attendance.
COMMUNICATION
**KEEP YOUR EYE ON YOUR E-MAIL AND THE BULLETIN BOARD FOR NEWS
AND INFORMATION!! IT IS KEY THAT ALL PARENTS AND DANCERS ARE
COMPLETELY AWARE OF WHAT IS GOING ON AND STAY INVOLVED!
COSTUMES
Costuming is provided by ABAC. Fittings will take place at rehearsals.
Our costumes are very valuable to us so please take good care
of them and return them neatly to their hangers. No eating is
allowed in costumes. A $30 dry cleaning fee will be charged
to any dancer who gets food or make-up on their costume-so be
careful!
Tights, shoes, and undergarments must be purchased by the dancer.
The performance tights are available through the studio, (see
order form) they are a dark pink and have a seam up the back.
Flat shoes must be leather, pointe shoes are expected to be
clean with tidy ribbons. Dance undergarments are available at
the dance stores. Panties should not be worn under costumes!
Hair styles will be established for the various roles and details
will be given in May. Remember that make-up for stage is heavier
than regular make-up and includes a minimum of powder, eye shadow,
eyeliner, blush, mascara, lip liner, and lipstick in a brownish
red. Complete stage make-up kits with colors selected by Mrs.
Day can be purchased through ABAC.
FUNDRAISING...
The guild will be organizing fundraisers to help pay the production
fees of our performance. Everything goes to support the cause
and we REALLY hope to get 100% participation in the fundraisers!
