VERY IMPORTANT REHEARSAL INSTRUCTIONS:

 

 

 To the side is the order in which we will rehearse on Friday, May 16th.  THIS IS NOT THE ORDER OF THE RECITAL, ONLY THE REHEARSAL.  We tried to keep the younger ones earlier in the day.  After you have gone through all your numbers, you may leave.  Please be sure you haven’t missed any of your routines!  You are welcome to stay and watch as long as you are quiet.

 

Parents don’t panic-rehearsals are supposed to look chaotic. The students really do know their routines and will really shine on Saturday!

 

 No dressing rooms will be open that night so everything must go in the auditorium with you. 

 

The students are to wear either their blue Superstars t-shirt or their new recital shirts and black shorts, pants etc.  They are to bring their dance bag with them and sit in designated areas with their class.  An adult needs to stay with your child in the auditorium.  The back stage parents WILL NOT be with your child that night.  It must be a parent or someone you have asked to be responsible for your child.  PLEASE DO NOT LET SIBLINGS OR ANYONE LEAVE THE AUDITORIUM FOR ANY REASON.

 

Please have your child in the correct shoes for their first dance listed.  If they are in a Baton or Pom class, don’t let them forget to take their batons or poms on stage with them.  There is usually one number in between each of their routines.  They will rehearse their first number, then go to the side of the stage to quickly change their shoes and come right back on stage for their next number.  To keep things moving quickly, have them take their dance bags up on stage with them.  As soon as they have completed all of their numbers, you may leave. 

 

TIMES TO BE AT REHEARSAL –

On Friday, the first few numbers need to be ready and backstage at 4:00; so please arrive by 3:45for Carlisle, and 4:45 for Norwalk.  Please check the order for a more detailed time to arrive.  We want the students watching the classes ahead of them so they know what is expected of them. 

 

Please bring something quiet to keep children occupied while waiting. 

 

PLEASE MAKE SURE YOUR NAME is on everything.  A star or a dot doesn’t help us to find the owner of the items. 

 

NO FOOD OR DRINK WILL BE ALLOWED IN THE AUDITORIUM.

 

FINALE CLASS–this is towards then end; if you are in the finale class, please don’t leave until you have rehearsed this routine as well. 

 

Thanks so much for your help – we want this to go as smoothly as possible, if everyone cooperates it can be a pleasant experience!  PLEASE KNOW WHERE YOUR CHILDREN ARE AT ALL TIMES.
