Recital 2024

RECITAL 2024 INFORMATION

 

Dear Parents and Guardians,

Recital 2024 will be held Saturday, May 11th at 10:30am, at the East Hampton High School. 
Tickets will be available April 1st and can be purchased at the dance studio. 

Tickets in advance: Adults $16, Kids & Senior Citizens $12 
Tickets at the door: General Admission $20  

 

Seating is first come first serve!  Doors to the auditorium will open at 9:30am.  Please arrive early if you want a particular seat. 

Dress rehearsal will be held at the East Hampton High School on Thursday, May 9th.  Specific group times are below as well as posted on our website under “events”.  Please arrive for dress rehearsal with your costume(s) at least 15 minutes before your group time. Advanced dancers should arrive at least 30 minutes prior to their group time. DO NOT WEAR YOUR COSTUME DIRECTLY TO THE HIGH SCHOOL.  PLEASE PUT IT ON WHEN YOU GET THERE ALONG WITH YOUR DANCE SHOES.  A limited amount of time is allotted to each group.  If dress rehearsal is missed, there is no opportunity to make it up.  A missed rehearsal will not only affect the individual, but the entire group dance as well.     

PLEASE NOTE: NO FOOD OR DRINK IS ALLOWED IN THE AUDITORIUM! 

NO PICTURES OR VIDEO DURING THE PERFORMANCE PLEASE.  It is distracting and disrespectful to audience members surrounding you.  Videos and pictures may be taken at dress rehearsal. 

Dancers should arrive at EHHS no later than 30 minutes before the show on recital day.  Advanced dancers should arrive no later than one hour before.  During the performance, all students should refrain from entering the auditorium.  They will be assigned designated areas backstage that will be supervised by adult attendants during the show.  It is recommended that dancers bring something quiet to do backstage while they are waiting to go onstage.  THE ONLY BEVERAGE THAT IS ALLOWED BACKSTAGE IS WATER. 

It is traditional, rather than necessary, that performers receive flowers and bring them onto the stage at the finale.  It is the parent’s/guardian’s responsibility to provide flowers prior to show time if so desired.  Backstage room attendants will make sure your child carries their flowers onstage for the finale. Name of flowers is helpful. 

 

 

Costume Information

Students will be sent home with a costume, garment bag and hanger, all of which MUST BE RETURNED.  The reason why we can rent out costumes each year is, they have been returned on time and in the condition they were sent out in throughout previous years.   Please do not be the family that ruins it for everyone. 

Costumes must remain in the garment bag when taken home and placed somewhere safe.  Keep them out of reach of pets and small children.  Only one costume is given to each child.  A second will not be given if something happens to it. 

DO NOT FORGET YOUR COSTUME THE DAY OF REHEARSAL!
DO NOT FORGET YOUR COSTUME THE DAY OF THE SHOW!

Students will supply their own base that can be used year after year.  The base of the costume is a long sleeve black, scoop neck leotard and pink tights for most classes. A list of the base that is needed for each class will be posted.  These items can be purchased at the Creative Dance Center for convenience. 

Hair for all students should be up in a neat and secured bun for dress rehearsal and the show.  Makeup should be worn.  Any colors.  Makeup optional for Saturday morning students.   No jewelry!

ONLY WATER MAY BE CONSUMED WHILE WEARING COSTUMES.

After the show, students will leave their costume in the garment bag, on the hanger with their room attendant.  NO COSTUMES MAY GO HOME AFTER THE SHOW.

            - Assist with bathroom if needed
            - Keep dancers quiet during show
            - Line dancers up when it’s time for them to perform (attendant will come get them)
