MANDATORY DRESS REHEARSAL:  All dancers required to attend. Dec. 2-6, 2024 (exact day/time TBA)

​

EXTRA REHEARSALS:

 

Nearly all rehearsals will be during class time, however, to make each dancer look his or her best and understand how the whole show fits together, a few extra rehearsals will be required. Detailed schedules will be sent home once casting is complete.

  

PRODUCTION FEE: Great news! The cost was able to stay the same as last year!

 

Due to the cost of producing such a show, each dancer will be required to pay a $60 non-refundable production fee. This fee is used directly to offset the cost of costumes, theatre rental, extra rehearsal time and technical elements of the production. The production fee can be paid in two installments. All payments must be paid in full by October 15. Students enrolled in more than one ballet class who would like to perform in the production with each class, may do so at a rate of $40 per additional class (to cover the cost of costumes).

  

TICKETS: Information on purchasing tickets will be sent home with students in November.

 

COSTUME REQUIREMENTS:

 

Each dancer will be responsible for providing their own required ballet tights, skin-tone body liner & class specific ballet shoes (purchased from CSA). All other costume pieces will be provided by Center Stage.
