General Recital Information
How are the shows organized?
This year we are separating our recitals into four performances. Our Friday Evening show will feature our Elementary School Classes in 2nd-5th Grades. On Saturday we will showcase our youngest dancers in the Morning, our Afternoon Recital will feature our Kindergarten and First Grade dancers, and our Evening Show will include our Middle and High school dancers. Our performing groups (Ballet Company, Lee-ettes, and Proteges) will perform in all four shows.
Notice to High School Students
Traditionally, the high school students dance at the evening performance of the recital. High school classes may be asked to dance in more than one show. Being asked to dance in multiple shows is a privilege. All dancers who commit to dancing with their class for recital must be able to commit to performing each time her/his class performs. The faculty reserves the right to exclude from performance any dancer who cannot commit to participating at each recital performance; whether the performacne be in the morning, afternoon, or evening. Only Seniors taking solo lessons are eligible to perform a solo in the recital.
Recital Requirements
All students are invited but not required to perform in the spring recital. If your dancer will not be participating, you are responsible for notifying the office before costumes are ordered for the class. Each participating student will be responsible for paying a recital fee to defray the costs in production, and will be required to purchase a costume for each class that he/she takes, with the exception of Sacred and Pointe students. A recital fee will simplify the recital experience by providing 1 printed program per family, video links to all performances, and Free General Admission.
