CHRISTMAS SHOW REHERSALS
Hey everyone!
Here are some things to remember for Tech Rehearsal, Dress Rehearsal and Shows! Before you read on I want to remind everyone to take good care of yourselves this week! Get good sleep, eat healthy food, and pray for the show to minister to many many hearts!
Tech Reheaesal:
Black solid leotard
Pink tights
Black dance shorts allowed
Whatever shoes are appropriate for each dance your in
Hair in a neat bun
Bring warm ups
Dress Rehearsal/shows:
HAIR:
Things to remember-
Be sure your bun is a classical bun (center of bun should be in line with the top of the ears and centered on the back of the head), no bangs, and hair is styled straight back into the bun (no parts:)
People who wear half up/down and a classical bun during the show must position the pony tail for the half up/down style at the center of where a classical bun will be so that your half up/down pony will always be done and a bun will be done over it for easy and quick transition for changing hair styles.
Be sure to check and make sure you know what your hairstyle should be for all your parts
Be sure your hair is neat, NO WISPIES PLEASE. Hair spray and gel are what can be used to get your hair to stay back neatly with no wispies. For small pieces of fly away hair that do not stay down, use Bobby pins that match your hair color to keep them against your head. For buns, you should use a hair net for a neat finished look.
For curling hair, if your hair does not hold curl for hours and hours, we encourage you to have your dancer sleep in curlers, this technique makes curls last a very long time and is the best option for long lasting curls.
PACKING:
Things to remember
Check the costume list to be sure you have everything you need for your parts in the show (tights, leo, nude leo, etc.)
Pack all shoes you need for all your dance parts in the show
Label everything with your name
Pack warm ups to wear before it is time to dress in costume. For dress rehearsal, you will need to wear the same warm up clothes listed under tech rehearsal, plus your show T shirt before you are dismissed to put on costumes
Things you should ALWAYS have in your performing dance bag
1. Bobby pins the color of your hair
2. Hair pins the color of your hair
3. Safety pins in different sizes
4. 1 extra pair of tights in ea. Color
5. Hair net for buns

7. Extra ribbons for pointe shoes
8. Needle and thread for pointe shoe emergencies

10. Pony tail holders the color of your hair
11. Hair brush/comb
12. Make-up/wipes
13. Band- aids
14. Nude color assistance for injuries such as KT tape, braces etc.
15. Warm ups

If ever in question of whether or not you will need something, pack it! Better safe than sorry!
THE DONT"S:
Don't eat in costume ever.
Don't wear nail polish to dress rehearsal or show
Don't wear any jewelry that is not part of the costume. (Dancers with newly pierced ears may put nude tape over earring studs to hide earrings)
Don't touch props you are not in charge of
Don't touch anyone else's costume pieces
Don't move your costumes to another location
MAKE-UP
*recommend starting with a primer or light moisturizer for more even application of foundation. Powder is also recommended for a matte finish
*pink shades of blush on apples of cheeks and up to ear/hair line
* eyes should have shades of brown and white/tan- lighter colors near the lash line
* black eye liner (preferably liquid) should be a thin line along lash line and wing out slightly. No bottom liner
* black mascara top and bottom lashes (older girls should consider fake eye lashes)
* pink-ish red lipstick (cherries in the snow 😉)
**avoid face products with shimmer as the stage lights will make your face appear shiny
FOOD
Please feel free to bring food to rehearsals, but NO PEANUTS please as we have a student with a peanut allergy.
Dancers are only allowed water.
No on is allowed to eat or drink in the dressing rooms.
We are so excited to bring CHRISTMAS to our community!
