Costume Bag Note 2014
Please keep this to refer to for the Recital June 4, 2014
Please do not let your Dancer wear their costumes around the house or lose anything.Make sure it is hung neatly on a hanger. You may fluff it in the dryer for1 minute with a wet, clean white wash rag or hang in a steamy bathroom, or very low heat iron to get the wrinkles out. Too hot of Dryer heat will melt sequins and material, so be careful. If there is netting please make sure each layer of net is separated and pulled carefully apart. These costumes have been stored in storage containers tightly since I received them. The girls tried them on the last few weeks, and they need a little care from you now. The boy’s hats will be kept for practice here.
Check to see if you need to attach straps tighter to the back of the costumes and hand sew or hem to fit your daughter, Also see if the front needs to be reinforced. All straps need to be attached. Make sure any other items are fitted to your dancer. I do the best I can in ordering sizes for your classes last spring or this year. Some costumes may need to be fitted, hemmed or pinned or sewn in the back to fit the skinny dancers. I cannot fix 108 costumes so it will be up to you to fit them to your dancer. We will fit the ones who are really big, before we give them to you.
Bring your costume bag/ hanger, everything labeled, with your child’s name on, including their ballet slippers, shoes, pants, leotards if worn under a costumes. With all the dancers in one area things can easily be mixed up. Double check your bag for items before and after the Dress Rehearsal and Recital. Please have your dancer’s come to the Dress Rehearsal dressed in their First Costume (It is listed on the top of your Colored Bag Note. This is NOT the T shirt, it is the first costume). For the Recital they will wear their T shirt first. We do it this way for photos to be taken and to not have to put the shirts on twice. Have your girls also wear her new TAN tights, and bring the labeled ballet slippers. Make sure they have gone to the bathroom before they come on stage and before the show. You may not have enough time to take them to the bathroom and get them back for their dance on time during the Recital. We cannot wait for them for pictures or the Recital. Also make sure they are well rested and have had a good meal and are not rushed, or stressed out when they come. (It makes for a grumpy and unhappy dancer). No jewelry or body/hair glitter will be allowed on stage so leave it home. The Ragan Theater will ask you to leave if they see you with glitter on your skin or in your hair.
Modesty- I try very hard to purchase modest costumes. Most Costumes do not have sleeves just like swimsuits don’t have sleeves. (See the New Era Article April 2007)
I have explained costumes are like swimsuits to the girls. The Beauty of Ballet is to see the lines in their arms. When the bodice and straps are sewn high enough that they feel comfortable dancing they will. I do not want to see any low cut bodices or bare bellies. If your daughter wants to wear a Skin colored leotard (Tan Leotard) or Skin Colored Bra under her costume that will also be okay. If they feel comfortable they will dance better.
I have 1 small, 3 int. 3 med and 3 large and 2 small adult on hand they are $16.00 they will be great for changing from one costume to another and being covered up. This is optional. I will not be ordering any more since the price of these have went up to $20.00. I also have a few skin colored Bra’s $12.00.
Dress Rehearsal/Pictures- Wednesday June 4th 4:00-6.30pm Ragan Theater – Utah Valley University • 800 West University Parkway • Orem, UT 84058. Please do not be late. We will start on time and will not wait for late comers. Please be lined up at the stage at least 10 minutes before your time to dance on stage. Please remember it is most important to be ready to dance on stage and STAY WITH YOUR CLASS. Then change into their 2nd costume and repeat- dancing on stage. Each number will be practiced only once.
A Mother or older sister will be expected to stay the whole time with your dancers and help them get dressed into their second costume. We need you there to keep this running smoothly. You will want to bring a sack lunch/ Water bottle for you and your dancer to eat/drink before the Recital, something that would not be messy or ruin their costume. There will be area in the Green room where they can eat, so we keep the Dressing area clean.
Professional Pictures- have your dancer come dressed in their first costume, and bring their Hanging or Costume Bag with their second costume in it. Your dancer will be in the group pictures regardless if you order or not. They will not have individual pictures taken as the other dancers. Please bring your picture money envelop to my house on Monday June 2nd.See class time. This will be the only time to pay Lifetouch Photography. Please do not let your child miss their group pictures even if you are not ordering. I love to have the entire dancer’s pictures up on the wall in the studio. They love to see their pictures also.
Lifetouch Studio has asked that no cameras be in the photo area- this is how they earn their money and it is not proper to take your own photos after they have set up backdrops and done so much work. Pictures will need to be mailed to you.
May Tuition is due by May 8th or at your first class. All Tuition will need to be paid byMay 23rd to dance this year in the Recital.
June Tuition will be Half Tuition ($17.50 girls and $10.00 boys); this can be paid with May’s Tuition if wanted. We will meet (7 hrs.) June 4th, the Dress Rehearsal/Pictures, Recital, and the Recital DVD Dance Party class. June’s HALF Tuition is due by Friday May 23rd and can be post marked if you want to turn it in with the check at the first of May.
Recital DVD Party-Tuesday June10th or Thursday June 12th 10:00-11:00am. Classes will end after the Recital DVD Party and start again when school starts in August. I will mail you forms this summer if you sign up for Fall Dance. The party is a highlight for the dancers. They love this party and to see themselves and the other classes dance on DVD, it is fun for them to see the benefit of all their hard work these last weeks. Bring a pillow, water bottle and Snack or healthy treat to share with everyone. The DVD shown will be a copy the professional DVD will be done later in the summer.
June 4th Wednesday Recital- 7:00 pm-UVU Ragan Theater- This is a different Location then the last 4 years. Please don’t save seats. There will be plenty of good seats. At 6:30pm the dancers will line up in their dancing order with the Class Moms in the hall. The will close their Auditorium doors for cleanup and reentry at 6:45pm. Class mom’s families will be given priory seating. The Recital starts at 7:00pm and lasts approximately 1 hour 15 minutes.
Don’t be late or you will miss out! We start on time.
Flowers- If you want to give your dancers flowers or anything else at the Recital, don’t bring them to the stage. Give them to your dancer in person later as you are leaving. Each year there are dancers that feel bad because they think I am the one who gave the other dancers the flowers.
Girls Hair–Pull up the sides to the top of the crown of the head in a hair elastic for both the Recital and the Dress Rehearsal (Half Ponytail). Hair needs to be curled and looking nice! Some girls have asked to wear pony tails or Buns, this is also fine. I just want it out of their eyes. If you have headbands with your costume please bobby pin in a (x) so they stay on when dancing. Please have their hair nice for photos too.
Girls Make-up– Light makeup for the pictures, and darker makeup for the Recital so they don’t look washed out on Stage. Little makeup for photos.
Class Mothers–I need at least 2-3 mothers per class to help with each class. I will have a sign-up sheet in the studio. Please let me know if you can help. All you need to do is help the girls put on their 2nd costume and hair bow and make sure they line up in order for their next dance. Then you can go with the girls to the stage side and watch the Recital from the side stage and take them back to the dressing area. Over the last years I have had Young Women helpers for the Recital. If you have someone who would like to help, let me know this could be an older sister, friend or former dancer (sign them up). We need lots of help to make this show run smooth. We will have a big room behind the stage and also the hall to line up in. They will have televisions that will be broadcasting what is taking place on the stage. So you can see what is happening and the dances at all times. This will be fun for the girls too. Also if you have any older daughters or friends who would like to help we can use them too.
Please no men or boys in the girls dressing area. The boys will need Mother helpers too.
Let me know if you can help. The boys will be wearing their own Levis and Hip Hop shirt they can just put their other shirt on in the boys restroom. This will be the boys changing rooms.
Please be to your class each week unless you are sick- it is really hard to practice with a few dancers missing every week. Many of the dancers have missed so many classes since we started learning the dances that they still do not know the routines yet. It is also very confusing to the other dancers to make changes without their partner there each week.
We only have 6 weeks to practice. Each dance we only practice 2 times a week because of time. Please try to be on time and stay the whole class. YOUR CLASS NEEDS YOU.
Please keep this note in your bag as a reminder
(1st date is for the Tuesday classes and 2nd date Thursday classes)
April 29th or May 1st – Girls- Utah Valley Dance T Shirt over Leotards and their own shorts. Boys- Blue Hip Hop Shirts and Levis Pants.
During your dancers class time wear the costume listed on your costume bag this helps the kids in practice to see how the costumes adds to the dance. No Leotards under unless stated on the note.

May 13th or 15th - Wear your 2nd costume to class

Wednesday June 4th Rehearsal/ pictures 4.00-6:30pm and Recital 7:00-8:15pm
Having the Dress Rehearsal and Recital all together, and with the combined dances will be a challenge since that is the first time to practice them together. I hope that you can help this run smoothly so we might get a little break between the Rehearsal and Recital. I could not afford to rent it longer hours and not charge $10.00 a person for tickets to get in. I thought that it may be easier to not have to travel to Orem 2 times that day also. I hope this will give you and the dancers more time in the morning to get ready too. Let me know your feedback after the Recital of how things worked. Please invite as many people as you would like to the Recital. It is free. There seating for 400, so first come seats.Please do not save seats unless they are there in the building. The front row will be taped off since my family will be helping get things set up before the show. Thanks
Your dancers are absolutely wonderful and talented. Thanks for a great year and thanks to you mom’s and dad’s also for helping your child to be able to develop their talents, gain confidence, grace, and poise and have a lot of fun in learning to express themselves. Some of your dancers have helped this year with steps for their dances and it is great to see them dream, grow, and share their talents. I hope to see each of them again in the when dance start in August when school starts.
I would like all the girls to have the same Tan tights for the Recital and for Pictures. Many of the girl’s tights are stained or ripped; please check them to see if you need new and save the new tan tights for the Rehearsal/ Recital.
