RECITAL INFORMATION 2012

DRESS REHEARSAL AND RECITAL FORMAT

THE HOW , THE WHERE , AND THE WHEN!

As the year-end performance approaches, we all share in the children’s excitement and enthusiasm. Seeing the look on each child’s face when they receive their costume, their thrill and sense of accomplishment of dancing on the big stage in front of an audience, you will see the only reason we have these performances is for the children.

DRESS REHEARSALS HELD AT THE ACT THEATRE

WEDNEESDAY, JUNE 6th 400 PM – 9:00 PM

THURSDAY, JUNE 7th 400 PM – 9:00 PM

ARRIVAL AND DISMISSAL TIMES WILL BE POSTED IN THE STUDIO LOBBY AND ON THE WEBSITE, ONE MONTH PRIOR TO THE DRESS REHEARSALS & RECITALS. PLEASE CHECK FOR YOUR CHILD’S INFORMATION AND ARRIVE 30 MINUTES EARLY, IN FULL COSTUME, HAIR AND MAKE UP AND PREPARED TO DANCE. THANK YOU.

CLOSED DRESS REHEARSAL- DANCERS & CREW ONLY

It is the policy of the dance studio to hold a CLOSED DRESS REHEARSAL. Volunteers, parent supervisors, runners, and staff ONLY will be permitted in the theatre during the rehearsal, in order to secure the safety of the students. A volunteer who will be supervising the children will attend to each group. It is important for us to have the children’s undivided attention in this situation and we thank you for your support. We want the experience of dancing on the big stage to be an enjoyable one. The students also love watching other numbers that will be performed in the year-end show.

If, for reasons beyond your control, a family member is unable to attend any of the Recitals, special arrangements may be made to attend the Dress Rehearsal. The arrangements must be made at the studio front desk prior to the actual Dress Rehearsal.

BASIC GUIDELINES FOR RECITAL FORMAT

CLASS ENROLLMENT

• STUDENTS ENROLLED IN CLASSES 5 YEARS & UNDER WILL DANCE IN ONE RECITAL (UNLESS A SECOND IS REQUIRED DUE TO SIBLINGS IN OTHER DANCES).

• STUDENTS ENROLLED IN CLASSES 6 YEARS & OLDER MAY DANCE IN TWO OR MORE PERFORMANCES.

Due to the number of students enrolled in multiple classes, and the sibling factor we cannot guarantee that family members will be in the same performances. As always though, we will do our very best to accommodate all families with children in more than one number. Our main focus is to make the recital a special event for all families. Solos and duos may not be in the recital with the majority of the student’s group numbers. Please take the opportunity to see solos or duos in the competitions. Reminder that students doing numerous solos or duos will choose one to perform in the recital.

The line-up will be displayed in the studio lobby and on the website on May 1st, 2012.

PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE check the line-ups and the A-Z listings to see which performance(s) your child is dancing. WE WANT YOU TO BE INFORMED!

IMPORTANT! FOR THE FAMILIES OF OUR YOUNGER DANCERS,

TICKETS SELL FAST!

IF YOUR CHILD IS DANCING IN ONLY ONE RECITAL,

PLEASE BE SURE TO GET YOUR TICKETS RIGHT AWAY!

DRESS REHEARSAL AND RECITAL ETIQUETTE

• PLEASE DO NOT use flash cameras in the theatre during the performances. The students can not only become disoriented by the flash, but this can also trigger seizures in some students. Please do not jeopardize their safety. Thank you.

• PLEASE NOTE Dancers wishing to watch the remainder of the performance must have a purchased ticket for that particular performance due to fire regulations.

• PLEASE NOTE Dancers wishing to watch the remainder of the performance must not wear their costumes into the theatre. Thank you for your cooperation in this matter.

• PLEASE NOTE Dancers signed out from backstage must understand that they will be unable to participate in the Grande Finale.

• PLEASE Remember, parent supervisors and crew are volunteers and family members, who have volunteered their time for this event. Students are signed in and out during the recitals and dress rehearsals as a safety measure. We do not take your child’s safety lightly and ask for your co-operation in this matter. If your child can only stay for a limited time, please inform your child’s volunteer parent when signing them in. Thank you.

THE ACT THEATRE'S POLICY - NEITHER FOOD NOR DRINK ARE TO BE CONSUMED IN THE THEATRE AREA, EITHER DURING THE DRESS REHEARSAL OR RECITALS. THEIR POLICY IS BACKED BY A FINE FOR VIOLATORS. PLEASE BE ADVISED AND COMPLY WITH THEIR RULES AS FAILURE TO DO SO MAY ALSO RESULT IN A TICKET PRICE INCREASE. THANK YOU. STUDENTS MAY BRING BOTTLED WATER ONLY INTO THE MAIN THEATRE AND STUDIO THEATRE.

VIDEOS BY ART YOUNG VIDEO PRODUCTIONS

We are pleased to have Art Young Video Productions videotape all performances at The Act Theatre. Pre-Order forms will be available at the front desk the first week of May. These forms can be returned with payment to the front desk no later than Thursday, June 28TH, 2012 Videos ordered after this date will have to be ordered directly through Art and will have an added surcharge.

VOLUNTEER PARENTS NEEDED – WE NEED YOUR HELP SUPERVISING STUDENTS AT DRESS REHEARSAL AND RECITALS!

Each year we ask for the help and support of parents, family, and friends to volunteer their time for the dress rehearsal and recitals. Volunteering as a parent supervisor is a commitment of your time and energy. We need your help to put on a safe and successful performance. Please come and be a part of OUR TEAM. THIS YEAR WE HAVE MORE GROUPS IN NEED OF ADULT SUPERVISION BACKSTAGE THAN EVER BEFORE.

A sign up sheet will be posted in the lobby one month prior to the dress rehearsal and recitals. We will be more than pleased to have your support and discuss the times best suited to you. A Volunteer Information Sheet is attached to this notice; it outlines the expectations of becoming a parent supervisor. The earlier you can get this back to us the better. It takes a lot of time to get our volunteers organized.

We thank all the past volunteers for all of their time and support. We really appreciate the dedication of our parents. Thank you.

VOLUNTEER INFORMATION

Thank you very much for your interest in volunteering as a parent supervisor. The dress rehearsal and dance recitals will be held at The Act Theatre, in Maple Ridge. We depend on parents to help during these events and ask for volunteers to commit to the requirements we have listed below, to ensure that the children are as safe as possible.

If you sign up, WE COUNT ON YOU to be there 45 MINUTES PRIOR TO START TIME. If you are unable to attend, PLEASE give us ample notice so we may make alternative arrangements. Thank you.

• PLEASE DO NOT LEAVE YOUR ASSIGNED GROUP UNATTENDED. We ask you to stay for the duration of time, for both the rehearsal and recital that you have volunteered for.

• Even if your child has finished their dance, please remain with your designated group until they are ALL SIGNED OUT. By leaving a group unattended, this puts an added responsibility onto parents trying to watch other groups.

• PLEASE DO NOT LET YOUR DESIGNATED GROUP RUN WILD at the dress rehearsal and backstage at the recital. During the dress rehearsal, the students and volunteers will be in the audience, but during the recitals the students will be backstage. We are asking parent volunteers to bring games, cards, any CLEAN ideas to keep the students occupied. We need to keep the students together with their groups, as the stage helpers don’t have time to chase down students when it is their turn to go on stage. Also, some of the students have costume changes and will need to be moved from group to group.

PLEASE DO NOT ALLOW THE STUDENTS TO EAT OR DRINK DURING THE DRESS REHEARSAL OR RECITALS (WATER BOTTLES ARE PERMITTED). THE ACT THEATRE LEVIES A FINE IF ANYONE IS FOUND WITH FOOD OR DRINK IN THE THEATRE. ALSO, PLEASE REMOVE ALL JEWELLRY BEFORE STUDENTS GO ON STAGE.

THANK YOU.

We try to assign parents with their own children, but we cannot always promise you that it will work out that way. Please make sure you find out which group you are assigned to and we ask that you show up at the times listed on the attached sheet for the dress rehearsal and recital.

If you are able to give us a COMMITMENT to volunteer for the dress rehearsal and/or one of the recitals, please sign the attached sheet. Please indicate at which recital you will be available to help, and gear up for being a baby-sitter/staff sergeant/volunteer and return this form to the front desk.

Thank you for your consideration and support in this matter.
