CONCESSION STAND

HAIR & MAKEUP
We want the recital to be a stress free day and we know how much stress hair and makeup can often add to this! Please do not feel that you have to apply heavy makeup to your dancer - it should be natural and maintain their natural beauty being a child. Watch the video below for some great tips and guidelines...

CARING FOR YOUR COSTUME
It is important to know how to care for your costume leading up to the show! Here are a few tips!
1. Do NOT take the tights out of the packaging until the weekend of the show! You don't want to wear them to class or risk tearing them before the recital.
2. If your costume has a tutu, fluff the tutu the week before the show! Pull apart layers of tulle or mesh for full fluffiness effect!
3. Tulle and mesh will likely be wrinkled from being in their storage bag. DO NOT IRON THEM AS THEY WILL MELT!!! Instead, hang it in the bathroom with the door closed while you shower and then smooth out the fabric by tugging on it slightly. You can also LIGHTLY steam if you wish!
4. Keep the costume, tights, and hair piece in the garment bag provided to you so that nothing is lost when you need it!
CHECK IN & OUT SAFETY PROTOCOL
When every parent knows what the protocols are, it helps all of our dancers stay safe! With so many little ones under the age of 10, it's a big responsibility to keep track of everyone and ensure everyone is going home with the right party: it's one we take very seriously.
We will be entering the auditorium through the courtyard. There will be a sign at the courtyard. We are asking all guests and dancers leave promptly after their show through the door at the front right of the stage to allow our staff enough time to prepare for the next performance.
