Showcase 2010 Accessory List
Listed is the required accessories needed per class number. ALL dancers are required NOT to wear bangs. From the audience point of view and distance, bangs cover the face and hides your child's face. No food allowed. ONLY water bottles (no juice). The shows are approximately 1 hour and 20 minutes long so it is short enough so food or juice is not needed.
Also NOT ALLOWED back or on stage are: panty lines, jewelry and gum chewing.

All tights for ballet should be ballet pink color to coordinate with the pink ballet shoes. This color has been worn by professional dancers for decades and flatters the legs on stage (white makes the legs look washed out with stage lighting).

Make up on the face should be light yet necessary. Eye shadow, rouge and lipstick is recommended. ABSOLUTELY NO JEWELRY. It is dangerous if an earring, bracelet, necklace or ring gets caught on the fabric of the costume or on the head piece or falls on stage and can injure the dancer.

Hair: Most classes require the hair in a bun with NO bangs. The standard bun is placed in the middle of the back of the head, the high bun is on top of the head and the low bun is above the hair & neck line. Use bobby pins versus hair pins to anchor the hair, hair nets help and lots of hair gel to hold layered hair and bangs from face. The dressers back stage will assist if this is difficult to achieve at home.

Tutu instructions: If your costume is a tutu, you will need to hang it upside down on a hanger. Also hang in the bathroom and use the steam from the showers and baths taken over 2-3 days to relax the wrinkles. After each shower or bath (you should do atleast three steams), use your fingers to tug on the netting to remove the wrinkles. DO NOT PRESS the tutu since it is nylon and will burn.

Please Note:
We do not change hair during the show. Ballet class hair requirements take priority over other classes.
