This is for the safety of all students and staff, to help minimize confusion and help processes run smoothly, and to ensure that our staff is fully aware of all who are backstage with our students. Please do not ask for exceptions. We have ample staff to safely monitor students and run our processes. If you need a student during a rehearsal or performance time, please see Sue Lynch at the front desk, who will assist you in locating the student. Please also note that parents/family are only permitted to be in the lobby area during rehearsals and are not permitted to be in the auditorium. Thank you in advance for your cooperation.

Important Information:  My Child Has A Costume Change: All Costume Changes will take place in the dressing rooms. We are trying to eliminate all quick changes- if for some reason your child has a quick change, they can change on the side of the stage if you have back to back dances. Staff members will be in the dressing room to help younger dancers with any costume changes.  Etiquette At The Performance Please stay in your seat while a dance is being performed.
