Performers please promptly arrive for sign in at 4.45pm Dress Run start: 5pm Please pick your child up at 7pm Students should leave costumes on site over night- however any valuables we advise to take home. You don t have to french plait hair or wear make up for dress run. **Gymnastics and Adult routines are not running on the Friday dress run** Saturday 3 rd March Please could students arrive promptly at 1pm. (2pm chaperones please arrive at 12.30-12.45) Students will stay on site with us all afternoon. Please provide a packed lunch to eat inbetween shows. Please collect your child after the 5.30pm show (which will finish at approximately 7.30) at Level 2 Bar. Obviously if you ve just watched the show- you ll just come straight for them. They will be waiting for you.
Questions? What happens if my child becomes ill? Should your child become ill during the course of the day, we have your emergency details on file you will be contacted. Can I come backstage with my child? No. TICKETS I believe the 5.30pm show is nearly nearly nearly sold out. Therefore if you have any last minute purchases I would suggest to ring the box office at Carriageworks asap as what they have left online now doesn t appear online! There s lots of seats left for 2pm viewing. Please don t judge what is online- as they often have far more tickets left than they put online! COSTUMES Final bits to be handed over after half term. Please take time to check the list to see what you may need to provide yourself (shoe colours, socks, tights, crop tops etc) so that we don t have any issues on the day. Checklist is at the end of this letter. Also- if you have a balance remaining please pay up asap. Thanks. HAIR Two french plaits with centre parting. Black elastic bobbles on ends (or whatever matches hair shade). You don t have to french plait hair for dress run. If your hair is in a permanent braided style- as long as the hair is back from the face that s fine. No need to change your braids especially. If your hair is too short- above the ear line short- and cannot be plaited in any shape or form- then simply clip back any floating hair at the front. Or if you can try and plait back the floating hair that would be great.
MAKE-UP Girls Only- Red cheeks, blue eyeshadow, mascara/eyeliner, black flicks, red lipstick. Makeup is a tricky subject- the strong stage lighting (and especially for the video recording) will blank out your face. Plus- it s showtime, and dancers wear make-up- we re not going shopping or to the movies! I know there are many opinions that s fine whatever you want. I am just letting you know why. You don t have to wear make up for dress run. If you have eczema on the face, don t panic- just don t wear any! Maybe you could just wear a bit of red lippy to not feel left out. Please arrive with make up already done on Saturday. You can bring spare make up up top up on showday. A chaperone will help.
PROGRAMME There is a programme on sale on the day in the foyers of the theatre priced at 1. A nice keepsake. PHOTOS Photos will be taken backstage and front of house. Ones that we take in-house we will pop on our members closed group (Facebook). I don t think the theatre allows photography during the show. DVD There is a DVD of the show which will have the 5.30pm Carriagework show on it, and also the 11am, 1pm, 3pm and 5pm shows of the Northern Ballet day. Videographers are very expensive and clearly we have 2 days for him to do- as such are DVD s are priced at 13.00 but will contain everything which is great news for siblings and multi-show-kids! DVD s can be pre purchased with Maureen at reception and for a couple of days after the show. They will be on sale at the NSCD show but not the CW show as they take commission which we cannot afford. DVD s swiftly arrive a few weeks after for collection in class. Great memories to treasure. BUS/CAR/TAXI/PARKING I would recommend Woodhouse carpark which is fairly nearby. I suppose it s even cheaper to get a bus into town, or a UBER. but I know some will ask where I recommend to park?! CHECKLIST FOR SHOWDAY LABEL EVERYTHING including shoes I say this every year- and still we have loads of people who lose things unlabelled. Any items unlabelled will be thrown away. Any labelled items will be brought with us and returned to the rightful owner. NO NUTS. We have children with nut allergies. It is for your knowledge that we have ample members of staff who are first aid trained, and we are lucky to have a few doctors on site in the form of parent volunteers. Invaluable helpers. 1. Medication (inhalers) etc 2. Enough food/drinks to last the afternoon. 3. A carrier bag to pop your rubbish in. 4. Your show costumes. 5. Perhaps a little spare make-up incase you need a top up. Your chaperone could help you.
SHIMMER TIGHTS If your child has been asked to get shimmer tights or stirrup shimmer tights- please ensure they are TOAST and not LIGHT TOAST. They are like 3-4 online here s a link to show you http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/silky-childrens-girls-stirrup-foot-shimmer-dance-ballet- Tights-/282344968877?var=&hash=item41bd1252ad:m:miLW_FVpMUunn6aH2ALP2kw We also sell them with Maureen, and we currently have a selection of sizes in stock for ease. ELASTICS AND PROPS- AND OTHER COSTUME BITS AND PIECES. All hats (not baseball caps) and wigs will need elastic attaching please. - WELCOME TO THE 60S WIGS (ALSO PLEASE CAN YOU TACK THE RIBBON WAISTBAND ONTO THE FRONT SIDE OF THE DRESS SO IT STOPS FLAPPING UP AND DOWN WHEN DANCING - SAILOR CANDYMAN HATS- NEED ELASTIC ON PLEASE. All tutus- no bras visible. Thanks. Loose the bra or make sure you have a strapless bra.
Costume Checklist It would be really helpful to have everything for 1 dance in one 1 labelled bag- this way if your child is involved in a quick change it s easier for us to get the bits together that we need. So if they were in 5 dances- then 5 labelled bags clearly stating name and dance on the front of it. Gift bags or paper take-away bags are quite good for this- the sort you can write on and are plain. DANCE TIME THEY ATTEND AND WITH TEACHER?
