Ticket Prices Per Show ren & s: $20 (extra fees may apply if purchased online / over the phone) If your dancer will be watching before or after performing they will need to purchase a ticket. If they don t have a ticket to watch in the audience there are dressing rooms for them to stay in during the show. We will have older dancers available to stay with the younger dancers during the 2 pm show, but parents are responsible for changing their dancers into their costumes if the dancer needs help. Recital Fee There is a $25 recital fee which must be paid with costume fees due on March 11th. Account Status Your account must be current with no outstanding balances to participate in recital.
Video Cameras We will be having a professional video company taping the entire performance. These are wonderful videos and will make great memories. The approximate cost will be $40. You will be able to order your video at the performance. There is no personal videotaping allowed during either show. There will be separate videos for the 2 pm and 6 pm show. If you would like to video during the dress rehearsal, please contact Lisa or a staff member. Little Rockstar Dancers To avoid confusion and congestion backstage we ask all parents of Little Rockstar dancers to keep your dancers with you in the audience until 5 numbers before their performance. Please bring your dancers backstage at that time and pick them up immediately after they perform. We will run through where to bring them and pick them up during the dress rehearsal. Recital Costumes Sign up & Pay Online this year! Our classes have worked so hard this year and we are so excited for them to show you how far they have come. We hope you all can perform with us this year. Technique classes such as adv. tech, int/adv. tech, floorbarre or stretch and turns / jumps will not perform a routine for their class. All other classes (except Jazz / Contemporary 6) will perform a routine highlighting what they have learned this year. Attached you ll find a list of all classes performing in the recital and the price of each costume. The teachers work really hard to pick recital costumes that can be used again in dance class, and for the little ones can be used as dress up clothes after recital. Please indicate on the costume order form which classes you are enrolled in and will be performing with at recital. We will use the order form to order costumes and list dancers in the program. If you are unsure which class(es) please ask the teacher so you order the correct costumes. Elite Company & Allstar members are required to perform in all required class routines. NEW This year, you can sign up for recital and pay for costumes through your portal account online. Just log into your portal account and from your Family Page or Dancer Page click on Recital Sign up. You will need all measurments (to the nearest inch) to sign up online. Every dancer has a portal, if you did not set it up please contact us and we ll give you your log in information. Please turn in your costume form with payment or sign up/pay online by March 11 th. We will have a box at the front desk to put your order form in. If you sign up in your portal account, you do not need to turn a paper form in. Please do not place it in the black tuition box. Every class, unless otherwise noted below will be ordering a top specific to that class and using either bootie shorts, or other bottoms such as shorts, leggings, or sweats. No two dances will have the same costume except for the following classes which will be combined, if you are in both classes please mark both but only pay for 1 costume. If you sign up online only sign up for 1 of the classes so you only pay for 1 costume. *Teen Poms 4 & Poms 5/6 *Ballet 3 (Wed) & Ballet 3/4 *Adv Pointe & Ballet Cecchetti Gr 8-9 (Thurs & Sun) *Ballet 1 & Ballet 1/2 If you have any questions on the classes above combining routines, please let us know.
The bottoms you will need for each class are listed below. If you already have the bottoms listed in good condition (ex. bootie shorts) you do not need to purchase new ones. If you need to purchase bootie shorts or black leggings you can get them at Dance X-treme Bodywear in Greenwood Village or online (dancewearsolutions.com is one site where you can purchase these items). If you have any questions please let us know. Bottoms needed for each class: (if your class is NOT listed below it means your costume includes bottoms) Black Bootie Shorts Jazz 5 Teen Jazz 1/2 Black Leggings Teen Jazz 4-4/5 Teen Poms 1/2 Tap 5-6 Tap 4/5 Tap 3 Teen Hip Hop 2/3-3 Teen Tap 2 Tap 3/4 4 Other Bottoms Teen Poms 4 & 5/6 Black running shorts (for more details ask Angela) Angela s Poms 5/6 & Teen Poms 4 If you are in either of these classes and also a member of Elite Company and a 2015-16 Varsity Pom Team you do not need to purchase a costume as you will wear your uniform in this dance. Please talk with Angela if you have any questions. Louanne s Ballet Classes All of Louanne s ballet classes will be renting professional ballet costumes. Louanne will size the girls in class and then bring the costumes to the dress rehearsal. Each dancer will need to provide their own pink tights and pink ballet shoes (Pointe shoes for pointe class). Ballet Gr 8-9 (Sunday), Ballet Gr. 8-9 (Thurs) & Adv. Pointe are combining into one routine, if you are in more than 1 of these classes you only need to pay for 1 costume. These costumes are rental costumes; they will be returned straight to Miss Louanne after they are worn at recital. These costumes will not be taken home.
Costume Sizes On your order form (or online) you will need to mark sizes for both tops and pants. You cannot sign up for costumes without giving us measurements. We will need measurements for hips, bust, girth, and waist (online just mark to the nearest inch). The girth measurement is the torso length (start the tape measure at one shoulder, go down thru the legs and up to the same shoulder to get the torso length. Parents need to measure dancers, Starstruck staff will not measure dancers. These measurements will help us double check the sizes you are ordering. Starstruck is not responsible for incorrect sizing. To help insure that you order the correct size, below are some guidelines to help. XSmall Small Medium Large Small Medium Large XLarge Bust 22-25 25-28 28-31.5 Waist 19.5-21.5 Hips 22.5-24.5 Girth 35.5-21.5-23.5 24.5-28 45.5 23.5-26 31.5-34 34-36.5 26-28 24.5-27 28-32 32-36 34-36.5 45.5-51.5 51.5-56 36.5-43 43-46.5 27-30 30-33 33-37.5 36.5-57-60 60-63.5 43 63.5-66.5 If you are on the border of two sizes, it s always best to order the bigger size. 43-47.5 66.5-70.5 In May we will hand out a costume check list which includes which color tights and/or shoes are needed. Tap classes will wear black tap shoes, jazz classes will wear black or tan jazz shoes (any style, if you need to know specific color now please ask your teacher), lyrical classes will wear any tan shoe/footundies/pirouettes, ballet classes will wear pink footed tights and pink ballet shoes, and hip hop will wear tennis shoes or black combat boots.
