Opting Out of Recital
Students wishing to opt out of the recital should submit a written request to the office prior to 11/30/23.
Costumes
Costume Fees: Costume amounts are approximate and subject to change. Changes in a student’s schedule can result in a change of costume and costume fees. Costume amount includes costume and tax. For male dancers, the teacher will discuss with the dancer’s parents what attire is to be worn for the performance. All other classes will have one costume per class. All Costume fees are due December 1, 2023.
Class drop/add period ends December 1, 2023. Dancers who wish to change classes after that date must purchase an additional costume. There is a $10 late fee per costume for anyone ordering after December 1st.
Costume Distribution
Dancers will receive their costume(s) the week before or after Spring Break. Spring Peek Weeks (after spring break) are a great opportunity to see your dancer and video the recital routine for at home practice. Costumes will not be exchanged after April 15th, so you must pick up your dancer’s costume and try on for size before this date. If you need to exchange a costume for size and we are able to get the size, the exchange fee is $8 per costume.
Refunds
After December 1, 2023 costumes are nonrefundable and nontransferable. A student that withdraws from a class after purchasing a costume may pick up the costume between May 1-20, 2024. Costumes not picked up by then will be donated.
Video/Photo
Video-taping and flash photography are prohibited during the productions/recitals. A professional Blu-Ray or digital download of the recital will be available for purchase from Colorado Video Artisans. Professional photos from the recital will also be available in an online gallery.
How long are the performances?
Performances will be 45 minutes-1 hour for Purple, Blue, and Green. All other performances are 1.5-2 hours.
Will my dancer get to sit in the audience once her/his dance is finished?
For general safety reasons, we insist that all performers are to remain backstage during the shows. We have plenty of help backstage to keep your dancers entertained while they wait for their dance.
