If you have not already purchased your proper footwear for your class, please follow this link to find your class.
It is your responsibility to take care of your costume and bring it to and from dress rehearsal and showcase. Please do not allow performers to eat in their costumes, and bring a “cover up” to the showcase to help protect costume integrity.
MAKEUP
We encourage all dancers to wear a small amount of makeup on stage to help accentuate their features.
Students 7 and under recommendation: Pink lipstick.
Students 8 and up recommendation: Pink lipstick, pink blush, mascara and pink eyeshadow.
Musical Theatre Students recommendation: Refer to your individual notes.
HAIR
We ask that all showcase dancers & Rising Stars come with their hair done prior to the arrival for photo/dress rehearsal and showcase. Showstoppers (Willy Wonka) and NxtLevel (Matilda) will have specific hair as per their characters.
All dancers age 3-4 are requested to have their hair pulled and slicked back off their face with either elastics (example below) OR in braids if you/your child is comfortable.
All dancers age 5+ are requested to have a french braid or two french braids, tucked in at the bottom. Dancers with bangs are encouraged to have them styled. Dancers with short hair, or hair that is unable to be braided, we encourage you to have your hair pinned off your face neatly.
