7 and 8 year olds – 11:00 AM
9 year olds and up – 12:00 PM
PARTICIPATION REQUIREMENTS:
All rehearsals will be held on Saturdays beginning September 9 until the show. Because our rehearsal period is short, it is imperative that your child be available for rehearsal every Saturday between 1 and 6PM. Most children will rehearse for 1 -2 hours each Saturday. It will be impossible to work around everyone’s schedule. We will not schedule around other activities such as soccer. No exceptions. Additionally, there is a participation fee of $250 to cover costumes, theatre and staffing costs and all participating dancer families will be expected to contribute volunteer hours towards the production.
