All Things Recital
Dress Rehearsal:
Sat May 16th, 11am
Our dress rehearsal will be held at the beautiful 7th Street Theatre in Hoquiam, beginning at 11:00 am on Saturday May 16th. This is our chance to run through routines, practice transitions, and make sure every dancer feels confident and ready for recital day!
Families are welcome to sit freely in the audience with their dancers during dress rehearsal. This is a wonderful opportunity to watch other classes perform and cheer on our dancers from every level. We’ll move through everything as efficiently as possible, so please arrive on time, fully dressed in your first costume, with hair and makeup performance-ready. Bring ALL costumes and accessories as well as shoes. Be certain to label all items with your dancers name.
We will be lining up informally from the front of the stage on the side. We will call the names of the dances and have them line up. This for dress rehearsal ONLY. On Recital day we will all be backstage and line up from the dressing rooms, down the backstage stairs and onto the stage.
Dress rehearsal is a key part of the recital experience, it allows dancers to get comfortable on stage, under the lights, and in the theater environment before the big show.
