Attention Opening workshop students & Opens Contemporary, Jazz, Acro & Hiphop! You will be performing in BOTH Under The Lights and Echoes so you will need to arrive at 11:30am on the day. Dance Apprentice students who are helping are required from 9am.

 

Run-Through of the Day: Students will be dropped off at the side stage door at their arrival time to be checked-in, they will be escorted by staff to their change room. Parents are to leave the venue and return at approx. 7pm to find their ticketed seat. During this time students will run a stage and costume rehearsal between 4:45pm-7pm to get them familiar with the space and plot their dances on the stage, along with a lighting and sound familiarisation. This is students opportunity to watch each others performance and for our photographer to grab some snaps. Students will then head back to their change rooms with their room leaders & assistants to do any hair and make up touches and prepare for their performance. After their performance students are able to be collected from side stage door.

Hair and Makeup: 

Hair - For our female students, we require a middle part, sleek straight low ponytail. Use plenty of Hairspray and/or Gel to insure there are no fly-away's and each students hair is extremely neat. If your dancer's hair is too short to achieve this look, please let us know, and we can discuss an alternative. Click here for a hair tutorial.

For our Male Students, please have your dancers' hair done neatly, e.g., styled with pomade or gel, or pulled back for longer hairstyles. Please reach out if you have any questions regarding this. For our boys, we would like just an overall neat look.

Makeup - The makeup we require for our concerts includes the following products: foundation, powder, bronzer, blush, brown/tan eyeshadow, bright matte red lipstick, and mascara. For our older students, you are more than welcome to wear false eyelashes. Click here for a make up tutorial.
