The 2008 recital theme is “For the Love of Dance”! 

OUR RECITALS:

Our spring recital is not mandatory, but you don’t want to miss it.  This gives the dancers their time to show you all they have worked so hard on during the dance season.

RECITAL FEE:

$75 per child. This includes the child’s costume(which they keep), a trophy and two tickets to the show. There will be additional tickets available at dress rehearsal and the recital for $2 each. Children 5 & under are free.

DRESS REHEARSAL:  (Click here to see dress rehearsal schedules for each church.) 

Dress rehearsal is extremely important. This is a time for your child to see how it feels to be on a big stage before the big day. This is a day for many dancers to get rid of any stage fright they may have. This will give them an understanding of how it all runs, and they will feel more prepared and confident on the recital day. Come to your scheduled time in full costume, hair up or out of face and bring all of your dance shoes. Be sure their names are clearly printed on their dance shoes. If you are unable to attend the dress rehearsal, please call me to let me know and we will set up a time for your child to check out the stage before the show begins. 

RECITAL PHOTOGRAPHS: (Click here to see photo schedules for each church.) 

Each year we arrange for a professional to come and have scheduled group and individual photographs taken in their costumes. This year we are using North American Theatrical Photographers. Check out their work by looking at the sample photographs displayed at the studio. Come to your child’s schedule group picture time to be in the group photograph. Before & after scheduled group times we will be shooting individual pictures. There is no sitting fee. The proofs will be ready for you to look at during the dress rehearsal. They have many different packages to choose from starting as low as $13.95. Once you have placed your order, it will be mailed directly to your home. We will have another composite of our groups hanging up at the church, so please come for the group shot. 

RECITAL DVD: 

PVS – Professional Video Services will be doing out video this year. They use a split screen so you can see the group dancing on one part of the screen while zooming in for closer video on the other screen. Order forms will be available at the dress rehearsal and the recital or you can click here to pull up the order form online. These DVD cost $25 for one show and $45 for two shows. (You will be able to film the recital yourself.)
