2012 Recital Handbook

                            ELECTRIC YOUTH DANCE CO. RECITAL HANDBOOK

                                  

                                      Monday June 18th, 2012 Northridge High School

INTRODUCTION

    This handbook is your key to a smooth recital experience. It should be able to answer your questions, and inform you of what is required from all students and families.

 The recital will be a rewarding experience for all of our students. If this is your student’s first year at the Electric Youth Dance Company, we encourage the entire family to approach this milestone with support and enthusiasm. The benefits of performing in front of a live audience and participating in the artistic process of choreography, rehearsals, and teamwork are innumerous. Most important, each student is given the opportunity to be someone special someone who has worked with diligence, determination, and heart to achieve her/his goals.

    Performing on stage builds confidence and character; it gives one a sense of accomplishments and pride. These are qualities we want to see our children attain. The recital experience will help a child in other aspects of their personal lives at school, church, sports activities, and much more.

RECITAL FEE

     Your $35.00(per family (sisters and brothersonly, not cousins) recital fee includes entrance fees for you, your family, and friends. This must be paid by June 15th. All dancers who have not paid by June 15th will be unable to participate in the dance recital. This fee goes towards the rental of the auditorium, tech fees and Janitor fees for our Dress Rehearsal and Recital. This way you can invite whoever you would like and they do not need to pay a fee to see you.

DRESS REHEARSAL (Friday, JUNE 15th)

    The Dress Rehearsal is held at Northridge High School. All classes will have stage time in which they will practice their routine with full costume, performance lights and music. Each class has only 10 minutes on the stage so please do not be late! The girls will be excused after they have practiced on the stage and gone through the finale. Please do not be late. (If you are on the Competition Team please plan on staying there until 8:00 except for my “minis” you will be excused at 7:30.

   When you get there come into the auditorium and sit with your class. I need everyone to stay in the auditorium!!  Parents are welcome to stay however please do not let other children run around and please keep quiet, sometimes the parents are louder than the girls.

PHOTOGRAPHY AND VIDEOS

    I have hired a professional video-ographer to video our recital. This is a professional quality keepsake that your family will enjoy for years! We will use two professional video cameras to film the recital. The cost for the DVD is $27.00. You will be able to order your copy at the rehearsal. I have to sell a min. of 25 videos so please support us in this so that we can continue to enjoy this opportunity!!! 

RECITAL MON. JUNE 18th

    The performance will start promptly at 6:30 p.m. All students must arrive and meet in the  back hallway at 6:00 p.m. sharp all ready to perform!!  Our preshow will begin at 6:40.

    Students should use the restroom before their parents drop them off. I have Sunset Jr. Highs Cheerleaders there to help me with all of my little girl’s classes, so moms do not have to stay backstage.

    We will warm up and then get lined up for our show to begin. After each class has performed the volunteer in charge of each class will take the girls back and start lining them up for the Finale. After the Finale, I will have all of the little ones stay on the stage and parents can pick them up.

    If you have a daughter that is on the Competition Team they will need some assistants in costume changes. Please meet them on stage left in the dressing rooms. I will post the order for the Recital so that you can be prepared.

    The doors will not open until 6:00 p.m. We then ask that you do NOT reserve more than five seats per dancer. All reserved seats should be let go five minutes before the recital. 

UNPAID TUITION

    All tuition, recital fees, and costume balances need to be paid on or before June 15^th. If your account is not current your daughter will be unable to participate in our Dance Recital.

   

MAKE-UP

    Make-up should be worn to performance and dress rehearsal. Eye shadow, eyeliner, mascara, blush, lip liner and lipstick should be natural tones. Cheeks and lips should be reds or dark pinks. Competition teams should wear your competition make-up. Make-up should look natural, not heavy. If your performer does not have enough make-up on she will look washed out on stage. We want their beautiful features to be seen from a distance.

HAIR - (I will post pictures at the end of this blog describing hair styles.)

*”Hawaiian Roller Coaster”- Wear pink ballet shoes with no socks.  Hair in Alice and Wonderland, except instead of having the pony on the crown of the head move it a little to the right side. Have all of the hair very curly!  Skirt will have the split on the RIGHT SIDE.

*”Wild Wild West” - no socks, pink ballet shoes. Hair in a high back pony very curly. Head band bobby pinned in good!

*”Rio”. - Black ballet shoes. Hair in Alice and Wonderland, except instead of having the pony on the crown of the head moves it a little to the right side. Have all of the hair very curly! Feather over the pony. Be sure it is not going to fall out!

 *”Zero to Hero” - No socks and black ballet shoes. Hair in Alice Wonderland very curly. Head band bobby pinned in good!

*”California Girls” - No socks and black ballet shoes. I will let you know Thursday at class how I want your hair.

*”Ballet Class” - Pink ballet shoes, suntan tights. Hair will have to be the same as it was for your other dances. (If this is your only dance I will go over your hair on Thurs.)

*Boys hip hop - Wear tennis shoes/no show socks with your shorts and t-shirts.

*Tumblers – If you are in a dance class keep hair the same. If you are only doing tumbling pull hair out of face into a pony tail, curled. Wear shorts and T shirts with no shoes or socks.

*Competition girls – Same as you did for competition. For rehearsal we will not have time to change costumes so please wear your main costume and bring the others.

EVERYONE- Be sure to bobby pin headbands etc. in hair!!!

EXTREME BOUTIQUE

    We will be selling our summer practice outfits at the Rehearsal. I will have sample sizes there for you to try on. I will order them on the 20^th so if you do not order at the dress rehearsal or recital you will not be able to get them. I am only putting in ONE order. The cost of these is $31.00 and they are very cute! If you are doing tumbling at the Recital or you already ordered them they will be here at Dress Rehearsal. We will wear these in the South Weber parade in Aug. (If you do not order a T-shirt and shorts you can wear your costume in the parade.)

   I hope this answers all of your questions. I want to thank you all for giving me the opportunity to teach your children! I truly love each and every one of them, and look forward to sharing my love for dance with them for many years.

Love, Michele
