Hi All!
When it comes to show time I try to remember to give all the info. However I know some of it is buried in your inbox. I know mine is always full.
When is the show?
December 3rd at 4pm
Where is the show?
It is at Leading Edge Academy.
The address is:18700 N Porter Rd, Maricopa, AZ 85138

Where are pictures at?
Also at Leading Edge Academy. We will be in the lobby taking pictures.
How do we pay for pictures/video?
You will pay the photographers. You can pre pay using PayPal bryanmordt@gmail.com or you can pay cash the day of the recital.
Do the dancers need to wear make up?
I would highly encourage you to put at least mascara, blush, & lipstick on the girls. We don’t have lights as bright as a typical stage, which would wash their faces out, but the adding a little makeup helps their faces more visible for the audience.
How do we do hair for the recital?
We are doing a low side bun unless your dancers hair is to short. If their hair is short I would like it half up but the goal is for it to be out of their face.
Where does the hair accessory go?
If you have a clip then I would like it right above the bun.
What about tights?
Tights were included with almost every costume. Tan tights for every class except ballet. Ballet wears pink. Hip hop didn’t get tights because they are wearing leggings.
What shoes do we need?
If your dancer is in ballet they need pink ballet shoes. Unless you have a boy then they are black ballet shoes. If they are in tap then they need their black tap shoes. If they are in Jazz they need their black jazz shoes. If they are in contemporary, opening or closing they need nude foot paws or turners. Hip hop needs black sneakers with white trim (text me if you need clarification).
Tech rehearsal?
Tech rehearsal is Friday December 2nd from 5-7pm. Your dancers will come in regular dance clothes. Once your dancer is done then you are free to leave. During this rehearsal people save seats for the next day.
Dress rehearsal
On December 3rd we will be doing dress rehearsal during your picture time slot. It’s an opportunity to see if any of the pieces of your dancers costume need to be safety pinned because they are moving & distracting your dancer. Once your dancer is finished I would encourage you to take them home so they can rest & have something to eat.
Leading Edge rules
We aren’t allowed to have food or drinks in the gym. If your dancer is in multiple dances & will be at the school for most of picture times you can bring them a snack just have them eat it preside or in the lobby. No heels are allowed on the gym floor. If your dancer is in tap shoes please don’t let them run around in them on the gym floor.
You’re dancers have worked hard to make this recital amazing. I am so excited for this dancer recital & the kick off to the Christmas season! If I didn’t answer your question please don’t hesitate to reach out. I want this recital to go as smoothly as possible for everyone.
