Whoville Final Details!
DRESS REHEARSAL: Saturday, 3-6 p.m. at the studio. Full hair, makeup and costumes!
PERFORMANCE: Call Time: 9:30 a.m. at the Masonic Lodge in Ipswich.
Most of this was in the last blog post, but additional details have been added in RED. Costume pieces that students are borrowing from us will be handed out on Saturday at the rehearsal. Please be sure your dancer has safety pins and bobby pins in hand!
All costume pieces borrowed from the studio will be returned at the venue after the second performance. Make sure your dancer has a change of outfit to wear to and from the performance.
Hair should be professional and neat. Makeup does not need to be as heavy as we do for the competition stage and no lipstick, eyelashes or earrings are required.
Shining Stars:

Pair your outfit with one winter accessory such as earmuffs or a scarf in a complimentary color.
