Picture Day – Saturday, May 9th at Center Stage Dance Academy

All dancers participating in the dance recital will have the opportunity to take a whole class and individual pictures in their costumes. You must fill out an order form and pay in full before the dancer takes their individual picture. Several package options will be available on the day of pictures.
Dancers must be ready 20 minutes before your designated picture time to allow time to fill out the order form and line up the dancers. We run a very tight schedule and CANNOT WAIT FOR ANYONE!

• Recital costumes with the designated shoes and tights are required for pictures.
• Hair and make-up is your choice.

*We would like all dancers here for group pictures whether you are purchasing pictures or not.
*Parents are not allowed in the room during pictures.

Dress Rehearsal

Elgin Community College Blizzard Theatre

Wednesday, June 10 & Thursday, June 11

1700 Spartan Drive, Elgin IL 60123 – Building H

Time slots are given in 60-minute increments. All time slots are approximate and dancers should arrive 20 minutes before the start of their time slot.

• Dancers should arrive in FULL COSTUME with the appropriate shoes on.
• Dancers must be ready to go 20 minutes before

The Finale Dance is rehearsed at the start of dress rehearsal on Wednesday, June 5. Finale rehearsal is optional for ALL the dancers to come up on stage and dance together in their costumes. We ask that all dancers have clean sneakers or their dance shoes for this (no tap shoes, flip flops, or sandals).

Hair and Make-up

  • Hair should be neatly pulled back in a ponytail, bun, or braid so that is off of the dancers face and not distracting while they are performing.
  • Makeup is optional, however, we do suggest some mascara, blush, and lipstick to give the dancer’s face some POP! under the stage lights. Dancers will be required to stay backstage throughout the entire show. They will
    perform their dance plus a finale dance with the entire cast of the show.

All DVDs have a menu. With the littlest dancers, the videographer uses a split screen for more close-ups. With the production numbers, they focus more on the choreography.
