We will discuss costume details, makeup, hair, tickets, and theater procedures. It will really help to make things run smoothly at the theater if everyone attends the meeting. If you have a child who has performed in several of our shows and you have no questions or concerns; you do not need to attend the parent meeting. Dancers do not need to attend. Do not bring children or babies who cannot sit quietly during the meeting. Please bring your own chair as we have limited seating at the studio.

Saturday, May 25th – Monday, May 27th

No classes or rehearsals in observance of Memorial Day. Enjoy your weekend!
