TRYBOOKING

⁠

Your child’s class will perform one dance routine and the finale routine. (Some combination classes will perform two) 

We keep the concert relaxed and fun, as long as the kids are having fun and the routine looks together and special, us and your teachers are happy!

The concert usually runs approximately 75 minutes.

There will be a stop/start dress rehearsal on the morning of the concert. 

You can sign in/drop off your kids in the morning with a packed lunch and their bag, help them find their dressing are, there will be a rack with their class on it and the parents helper waiting, and come back at 12.30pm to watch the show.

COSTUMES –

The costumes are hired each year through us, and we ensure your class has a costume relating to their dance routine, fits your child's body and is age appropriate.

If you are borrowing tap shoes from the studio, in the last class you need to name them and place in the tub in the office so they are brought to the theatre with the costumes. There is tape and markers to name them at the studio.
