Dear D.B.D. Students and Parents,
The recital is quickly approaching and there are a few details you need to be aware of. Also, please make an effort to read posted signs at the studio, on windows, doors, and bulletin boards.
Dress Rehearsals for the recital will be at CHS as follows: Monday, at 5:45 pm for Friday Night recital.
Tuesday, 5:45 pm for Saturday Night recital.
Wednesday, 5:45 pm for Sunday Afternoon recital.
If you are in all three recitals, you must be at all three dress rehearsals!!! Dress rehearsals are closed rehearsals. You must wear your costumes and make-up, with hair done, to dress rehearsal!!! (That is after all why we call it a dress rehearsal… plus we have people taking pictures that we would like to be able to use.) We will assign parents to help with each class, during rehearsal, and everyone else is asked to come back to pick up their children later. If your child is 4 years old or younger, you may stay with them.
Friday & Saturday’s recitals at 7:00 pm, and dancers must be there, dressed and ready to go at 6:30 pm. Sunday’s recital is at 2:00 pm, and dancers must be there, dressed and ready to perform at 1:30 pm.
Dress rehearsals and recitals can be long. During that time, students may require a meal or snack. Because we all want the students to look their best in their new costumes, D.B.D. requests that they only eat non-messy foods. Please do not send anything chocolate, cheesy (like Doritos or flavored chips,) or anything including sauces or condiments. Water is the only drink allowed. There will be snacks available for purchase during rehearsals and recital. All snacks for sale during dress rehearsals are “D.B.D. Costume Police” approved!
If you did NOT have pictures taken, the photographer will be at the studio again. Please sign up for an appointment on the bulletin board in the lobby. We would love to have a picture of each student to add to our display! (Our photographer is a dance-only photographer and gives us a picture for our studio.)
If you DID have pictures taken, you may view and / or purchase them, Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday, at Crawfordsville High School during the dress rehearsals. The photographer will be located in the back hall, behind the auditorium, from 5:30 pm until the end of dress rehearsal.
If you still need tickets for the recital, please sign up for the amount you need and for which night, on the bulletin board in the lobby. You must pay when you order them in order for the tickets to be pulled. If you do not pay when you order, your tickets are not reserved. You may pick them up at the ticket booth on recital night.
