AURORA DANCE ARTS SPRING DANCE RECITALS

It’s that time again, Spring Dance Recital season! Dance is a performing art and recitals are one of the highlights of a dancer’s experience in this program. Recital is the culmination of nine months of hard work in dance classes and a chance to shine under the bright stage lights as dancers perform for family and friends. Aurora Dance Arts is in the final stretch of preparations for this very exciting time of year.

Below please find the finalized details for all dancers for Picture Day and each of the three Spring Dance Recitals on June 6, 7 and 8. Please make sure to read all of this information very carefully, so that you are very clear on the Picture Day schedule and which Dress Rehearsal/s and Recital/s your dancer is participating in. Please use all of this information to plan ahead and be prepared.

PICTURE DAY

SUNDAY, MAY 4

MEADOWOOD

12-5:30 p.m.

Picture Day is right around the corner! Please make sure that you mark your calendar for the general date and time described above and consult the buttons below for the specific schedule for your dancer's class/es. Picture Day is optional, but encouraged, for all dancers in the Continuous Children's Dance Program. Professional individual and group photographs will be taken of each dancer and class. Similar to Picture Day at school, each family gets to decide which picture package they would like to order. We will be providing you with picture order forms from our photography company, Black Owl Photography, in the next couple of weeks.

The Picture Day schedule is divided into 10 minute photo time slots for each class. You will need to arrive at least 15 minutes prior to your child's scheduled time slot. All dancers need to arrive in costume, with hair and make-up done. Picture Day is a very busy day on a tight schedule, so please be as timely and prepared as possible to keep things running smoothly for your dancer and for our staff.

There are two groups of classes running parallel throughout the day, so please double-check if you are in Group A or Group B. If your child is in more than one class, they may be in more than one group on the schedules. To find your scheduled time(s), please find your instructor’s name and your class day/time. The schedule is listed on page 2 of each photo flyer. 

Expanded information is contained in the flyers linked to the buttons below. Please click those links for full details.

RECITAL INFORMATION AND SHOW ORDERS

Please click the buttons below for all general information for each of our three Spring Dance Recitals. There is a Beg-Adv Show #1 on Friday, June 6 at 7:30 p.m., a Beg-Adv Show #2 on Saturday, June 7 at 6:30 p.m. and the Pre Level Show on Sunday, June 8 at 4 p.m.

Because of the schedule of our theater rental and the needs of each Recital this year, all Dress Rehearsals are in the afternoon the same day as the performance, and because each Recital is a different length, each Dress Rehearsal will last a different amount of time. But it should be noted that for all Dress Rehearsals, we will be needing to move very quickly and efficiently, so we ask that all dancers and families please come prepared as described in the information in the Recital flyers.

A friendly reminder that Dress Rehearsal is necessary for dancers to get used to the stage and be prepared for performing. We only ask for this commitment once a year and this is the culmination of everyone’s hard work throughout the last nine months! We thank you for your patience and cooperation.
