Dear Parents:

 

This pamphlet should answer your questions regarding costumes, pictures, videos, rehearsals, tickets and  other procedures pertaining to our annual dance recital in May.

 

Both shows have equal amount of dancers. Younger children have been given numbers which represent their placement on stage. When purchasing tickets, we will tell you exactly where to sit in order to get the best view of your child. Older children change formation, therefore, their numbers can change within the dance.

 

 If you have any questions, call the Studio.

                                            We will be happy to help you.
