Ballare Teatro Performing Arts Center Dress Rehearsal And Recital Information Packet 2017
Introduction There will be only 9 weeks of class when we return from Spring Break (7 weeks for Saturday and 8 for Monday classes no class Memorial Day weekend*). Therefore, we would like to ask that there be NO ABSENCES from class after Spring Break. We are trying to firm up choreography and get our dancers confident and ready for the stage. When students are gone it affects the whole class. If a dancer has a graded school event or is feverish or vomiting, please call the studio (612-721-8619) or e-mail us at ann@ballareteatro.com and let us know. Otherwise, we will see all dancers in class!

How Do I Do My Make-Up For The Recital??? Note to the parents: Due to the bright lights, people need to wear more make-up than usual on stage to look their best. That being said, do your best on the little ones. We understand that large amounts of make-up on little children make many of you uncomfortable. These are make-up guidelines from our many years of doing recitals and professional performances. Please use your best judgment. FACE Please use lots of foundation, more than you would normally use. (Remember, you would never go out looking like this this is FOR THE STAGE) Then apply heavy blush to cheeks and blend it in. Powder comes next all over your face to set your make-up. You might want to put some foundation on your neck so it doesn t look so much like a mask. EYES Take dark blue, black or brown eyeliner and start at the corner or the eye (nearest the nose) and begin lining the bottom of the eye. When you get to the edge of the colored part of the eye (the iris) take the line straight out (see below). You don t need to go very far out. Put a dot of white pencil in the corner of the eye nearest the nose and between the two lines. This makes eyes look bigger to the audience. Then put eye shadow on in shades of brown or gray, darker on the lid and lighter as you get close to the brow. Please use eyebrow pencil and mascara. LIPS Please us a darker red or pink lipstick. Line your lips. Please!! BOYS Boys need to simply wear some foundation, powder, a little blush and some Vaseline on their lips.
