Recital Info for Vibe Dancers…

• Arrival Time for ALL Vibe dancers is 12:30pm for both Dress Rehearsal and Recital Day.
• IMPORTANT NOTES TO REVIEW:
  • Parents, please note that dancers at the 2pm show must leave the venue in between the 2 shows at both the Dress Rehearsal and Recital.  Your dancer may stay at the venue in between shows IF she has adult supervision (if your group wants to bring in food/eat together at the venue).  Dancers need to be show ready by 6pm sharp each day for the 7pm show.
  • MOMS:  If you wish to be backstage during one or both shows, click here to signup to be a Backstage Helper on the FootNotes Signup Genius.  Only moms listed on the FootNotes Signup Genius will be allowed to be backstage. With 60 dancers in company, backstage space at the venue will be limited.
• Hairstyle Details:  Dancers should wear the competition hairstyle, High Pony (flat ironed/straightened) for both Dress Rehearsal and Recital.    Hair tie must match your dancer’s hair color.  There should be no part in the dancer’s hair.  All ballet pieces must have a bun.  Dancers will need to have their high pony transitioned into a high bun for this dance.  The bun must be a neat, tight bun (NOT messy).
  • For the ballet piece, Joie De L’eau, it is a combination of Bravo, Elite, Ovation & Premier Vibe dance groups.
  • In the 2pm show, the Joie De L’eau Ballet piece is mid-way through Act 2.  Dancers must have hair transitioned into a bun by the end of Intermission.  Moms need to check/do the bun for your dancer during Intermission (or ask…ahead of time…another mom to do it for you).  NOTE: If you are not a backstage Mom, this is the only time Moms should be backstage in the dressing room areas.  
    • Too Darn Hot (Premier & Elite), Mean Girls (Premier & Ovation), The Garden (Ovation) dancers should have buns completed by the end of Intermission. (The Garden will wear a bun for this dance.) 
    • Disco Divas (Bravo)** dancers should have buns completed by the end of Intermission.   **The exception to this if you are in the acro piece, I Do What I Do….dancers in this piece should have their hair transitioned into a bun after this dance.
    • Applause ballet piece is Love Me Tender, in Act 1 of the 2pm show.   Dancers will need bun for this dance…dancer’s hair will be transitioned to a bun as soon as Hallelujah, I Love Him So is completed in Act 1.
    • FOR ALL DANCERS: As soon as your Ballet piece is complete, dancers should take the bun out of hair and re-straighten the high pony as needed/if you have time.  Just a comb/brush through the hair may be all that is needed.    
  • For those dancers assisting with rec classes in the 2pm show (Elite and Premier), please start with hair in a straight pony, and have your dancer bring her bun/hair accessories with them so that your dancer can stay with her assigned rec dancer group, and get her hair transitioned into and out of the bun at the appropriate time.  Your dancer’s hair should be in a bun for the least amount of time to avoid crimping the pony.     
  • In the 7pm show, the Joie De L’eau Ballet piece is the first dance of Act 2, so again, Moms need to check/do the bun for your dancer during Intermission (or ask…ahead of time…another mom to do it for you).    NOTE: If you are not a backstage Mom, this is the only time Moms should be backstage in the dressing room areas. 
    • Dancer’s hair must be transitioned into a bun during intermission for all groups performing in the 7pm show…including Bravo, Elite, Ovation, & Premier.  (All of these groups have dances  in Act 1 of the 7pm show.)
    • As soon as the Joie De L’eau Ballet piece is complete, dancers should take the bun out of hair and re-straighten the high pony as needed/if you have time.  Just a comb/brush through the hair may be all that is needed.    
    • The exception to taking the bun out is The Garden/Ovation…leave your hair in a bun for this dance. 
  • Makeup:  On Saturday for the Dress Rehearsal, light makeup is acceptable/full stage makeup is not required.  On Sunday for the Recital, dancers must wear full competition makeup.   This includes lashes and our competition lipstick color.  There is no need to change the color of lipstick for ballet.     
  • Vibe Dancers will assist with escorting rec dancers to their appropriate rooms, etc. at both the Dress Rehearsal and Recital. Elite and Premier dancers will be assisting with the rec classes at the 2pm show.  A list of rec class assignments will be sent out this coming week. Dancers are to check-in with Christy as soon as they arrive.
  • More slots have been added to the FootNotes Sign-up Genius should you want to be Backstage to assist your group.
