Dress Rehearsal FAQ:
Q: Where do I drop off my child?
A: When you arrive at the theater, drive around the left side of the building to the parking lot in back. You will see a sign welcoming our D2D dancers at the stage door. Please walk your child to the door to be checked in, and one of our staff will escort them to the dressing rooms and stage when it is their turn to dance. You are welcome to re-enter the theater through the main lobby to watch the rehearsal. After your child's class has finished with their on-stage rehearsal, please return to the stage door where you dropped them off to meet for pick up.
Q: When should my child arrive to dress rehearsal?
A: Please plan to drop off your child at the stage door 10-15 min before their scheduled rehearsal. Dress rehearsal moves quickly, and we HAVE to stay on schedule in order to ensure every class has their time on stage. This means that when a class has their turn on stage, we are unable to wait if you are running late. If you arrive after your child's class has had their turn on stage, we will not be to go back and run their routine again.
Q: What should my child wear/bring?
A: Dancers should arrive wearing the costume for their earliest scheduled rehearsal, wearing stage hair and makeup. (For students in more than one dance, please bring any other costumes on a hanger in a garment bag.)
Q: What if my dancer has more than one dance?
A: If your dancer has more than one dance, they should come to rehearsal wearing the costume for their earliest scheduled dance. Additional costumes (including any accessories they may have) should be brought to rehearsal on a hanger in a garment bag. If your dancer has two dances scheduled back to back, they will not change into the second costume. They will rehearse the second dance while wearing the costume of their first dance. However, we recommend you still bring the additional costume.
Q: I am NOT great at hair and makeup...HELP!?
A: Not a problem. This is one of the reasons why we have a dress rehearsal! This way, we can review everyone's completed "look" before the big day! If you need help with hair or makeup, or have any questions, just ask! We will be more than happy to help. One of our staff or older students will gladly assist you.
Q: How long is my child's dress rehearsal? Do they need to be there the full hour?
A: Each hour of the dress rehearsal is slotted to allow time for 4-6 classes to have their time on the stage. When it's your child's class' turn, they will have the opportunity to practice entering and exiting the stage, review stage marks and formations with their teacher, then run the routine with music and lighting cues. Depending on how quickly this process goes, they may have the ability to run their dance twice. Afterward, we will have the kids pose at the front of the stage for a quick photo op! Once your child's class has exited the stage, they are free to go!
Q: Can I stay to watch the rehearsal?
A: Absolutely! After you have dropped off your child at the stage door, you are free to park your car and re-enter the theater through the main lobby. Then you can come in to watch the rehearsal from the house (auditorium seating.). Afterward, you may exit the theater and return to the stage door to pick up your dancer.
