Dress Rehearsal on Sunday 4th May
Vocational Dancers arrive to the Stage Door by 10:20 with all their costumes and hair & make-up done to practice on the stage. This is when official photographs will be taken and dancers get their last-minute nerves out. Dancers must bring plenty of water and high-energy, non-staining (no beetroot!!!) nutritional food for the day. They are signed out from the Stage Door at 19:15
The following information is for Dancers more than parents:

Attendance is mandatory - it is not only your dancer’s time to practice, but their peers’ too
Very Important Information
Your dancer is in the Vocational section of the school and will perform in all 6 shows. However, due to the split-casting, the Main Roles will have 3 shows where they are the Main Roles, and three where they’re Corps de Ballet.
On top of that, dancers only perform their Grade dance with their Grade branch.
The table below will be VERY useful when it comes to buying your tickets:
please ask your dancer for help to confirm the best show/s for you to watch
For organising your dancer’s pick up and drop off times, the information further down on this page is all you need and you can ignore the Grade Branch web-pages; Vocational Dancers arrive on site before the Graded dancers, and leave after the Graded Dancers. Easy Peasy.
