Please do not allow dancers to wear or play in costumes until after the completion of all performances. Parents are responsible for all parts of the costume (headpieces, tights, accessories). Make sure you have ALL components before coming to the auditorium. There are no “extra” accessories at the theatre. Please do not allow children to eat or drink once in costume. (water is fine, of course).
June tuition for your child is due in full. All accounts must be up to date in order for children to receive costumes or participate in the performance(s). All June tuition is due no later than June 1, 2025.
Flowers: Parents, please remember this is a special time for your child. It is customary in the Ballet World to honor your dancer with flowers after a performance. They do not have to be expensive or elaborate, but will be most appreciated by your child, and a validation of their hard work.
