VIBE SHOWCASE…3-2-1-GO!
Parents & Dancers: Please review these 3 updates for Blocking Day & Showcase!
THIS IS US – opening number at Showcase
Since this is not a Production year, we wanted to give our Dance Showcase a theme…this year’s theme is THIS IS US. To introduce the Showcase to the audience, our seniors have written (and recorded) spoken words that exemplify US…our dance team, the dancers, our studio, our dance family. The entire dance team will dance ‘improv’ to the spoken words as the opening act of the showcase (at both shows). All dancers will need to dress in all black dancewear (bootie shorts or leggings and bra top, or leotard) similar to what was worn at group photo day. Please note that the black dancewear should NOT have any LARGE LOGOS, and no tape to cover them up. We are excited about this addition to the show, and are even more excited that these spoken words were written by our seniors, Emma Darling, Savannah Drexler, and Lily Jorgensen. Cheryl will review where each group will need to stand to improv, at Blocking Day on Saturday.
HAIR UPDATE for BLOCKING DAY – This Saturday, February 11 at Milton Center
IMPORTANT UPDATE: Cheryl wants to see competition hair on Blocking Day. Click here to review the specifics for this weekend’s Blocking Day timing and requirements. Note that if you cannot have competition hair on Blocking Day because of a prior commitment either before or after your blocking time, you will need to show to Cheryl the competition hairstyle on your dancer sometime next week, prior to Showcase on February 18.
SHOWCASE Signup Genius – Needs Your Attention
Click here to volunteer on the Showcase Signup Genius. We will need to signup/hold multiple roles during the 2 shows. There are only a few roles (such as room moms, backstage managers) that are active throughout the show. Most other roles can double-up, AND you can still watch the show. You can take tickets before the show, sit down to enjoy the dancers, help out in Concessions during Intermission, and sit back down to enjoy the second act. Please step up to help and get these positions filled now! THANKS!

Everything you need to know about Blocking Day 2017 (February 11th at Milton Center) is now available on the website…please click here to access the web page (password protected). As always, if you have you any questions, please ask your Group Leader.

Pin on your pride and joy! We are offering Photo Buttons of our VPC dancers again this year to show our spirit for our girls.
The buttons are the same style as last year. They are 3″ in diameter and will feature a photo of your dancer with a red border that says “FootNotes Dance & Acrobatics” around the outer edge. It can be further customized with your daughter’s name, as an option. See button example below. We will be taking the headshot photos at the February 5 rehearsal day at the Studio. Please have your dancer wear light stage makeup and her white FootNotes jacket. Her hair should be pulled back in a high bun.
Buttons are $5 each, and you will receive them in time for Showcase…so order extra if you have extended family coming to see the show! We will be taking payments (cash or check payable to The Vibe) on Sunday, February 5, when your dancer’s photo is taken.
