DRESS REHEARSAL PROCEDURES VERY IMPORTANT. PLEASE READ CAREFULLY. See the DRESS REHEARSAL SCHEDULES (on pages 6-8) and highlight the numbers in which your dancer will perform. All performers must report to the BACKSTAGE, ENTRANCE TO THE DRESSING ROOM CHECK- IN. This area is located in the middle of the alley that connects Court Street and Market Street, behind the Weinberg Center. When parking in the West Patrick Street Parking Deck (at 138 West Patrick St.), walk to first level, and turn left at the parking deck payment kiosk that is nearest to the alley. Walk left again, and you will see the back of the Weinberg Center, and check- in table. Performers should arrive and depart in a cover- up to remain as professional as possible. Performers must not walk around in costume, except while backstage. (Dad's button- down shirts work great as cover- ups.) Please carry ALL dance shoes in a dance bag. DO NOT WEAR YOUR DANCE SHOES ON THE STREET. Performers should be in their first costume, WITH HAIR AND MAKE UP DONE, UPON ARRIVAL. NO UNDERWEAR, JEWELRY, OR NAILPOLISH during rehearsals or performances. Please label ALL costumes and accessories, including shoes, tights and cover- up. These items will be checked in with your child, if he/she is in more than one number in a performance half. Parents must enter through the front lobby doors of the Weinberg, after dropping performers off. PARENTS ARE NOT ALLOWED IN THE DRESSING ROOMS. Students will be dismissed into the house, from the door on the left side of the stage, after they dance. If students have multiple dance numbers, they may return to the dressing rooms as needed via the same door. (This only happens at Dress Rehearsal.) 5
