Use masking tape inside clothing and shoes if no label is available.
Please label water bottles, andfor younger dancers their bags.
Dancers with 4 plus dances should coordinate and bring hanging racks to share —costumes should arrive on hangers where applicable. We will have plenty of chairs/tables to hold clothes for dancers that do not need racks.
Don’t forget your checklist! This venue is not just ten minutes away, so double-check you’ve packed everything.

Older dancers (Juniors and Seniors):
Low ponytail - middle part and slicked back – curly hair concerns, please see our staff 😊
MAKEUP
All dancers should have color on their face so their features are visible under stage lights. (boys, use discretion)

DRESSING ROOM RULES AND GUIDANCE
To help the day go smoothly and keep everyone comfortable, please review the following dressing room guidelines with your dancers:
Occupying Time
We’ll provide quiet activities to help keep our tiny dancers entertained.
You’re welcome to bring small, quiet items like books, crayons, or coloring pages.
No electronic devices — we don’t want anything lost, broken, or causing distractions.
Food & Snacks
No nuts of any kind (we are a nut-free event).
Please avoid greasy snacks and anything that may leave residue or color on fingers.
Drinks
Only clear water is allowed.
No juice boxes, colored drinks, sodas, or sports drinks like Gatorade.
Meal Time - Dancers who will be with us for the full day should bring a meal
As we have done in the past, please pack a healthy boxed meal with them. Parents please do not plan on “Delivering” food to your dancer in the middle of our rehearsal. Thank you.
Food may only be eaten in designated areas! We need to follow this rule.
No nuts, please.
Please avoid giant bags of potato chips and similar snacks. In addition to being unhealthy, they can create unnecessary messes backstage.
***PLEASE LABEL EVERYTHING***
Some of our dancers have 10+ routines and multiple quick changes, so unlabeled items can quickly become a major issue.
