Photography

This year, we will have a professional photographer on site at DRESS REHEARSAL!!! 

Here are the details:

  • The photographer will set up INSIDE the auditorium for ALL OF OUR AERIAL performances. He will photograph our aerialists as they run their routines under our show lighting.

  • The photographer will set up OUTSIDE the auditorium, in the lobby, for all dance photos. Any dancer that would like to head to our photography station before, after, or in between their dances during dress rehearsal times are welcome to get some photos done! We won't have instructors at the photo station for the entire time since teachers will be needed in the auditorium, however, as we get closer to the show, we will take some class time to offer up some poses and ideas for any dancers that would like them! Feel free to do group photos, sister pictures, brother pictures, or just your dancer as a soloist!

  • DURING THE SHOW: We WILL allow photography to be taken during the show, however, for the safety of all of our dancers, tumblers, and aerialists, ALL FLASHES MUST BE TURNED OFF. Any sudden flashes that occur from the audience can put the safety of our performers in jeopardy. 


Dress Rehearsal Information:

Where: Maryland Hall

When: 6/11 and 6/13

More detailed times will be posted in the coming weeks.

Updated: 4/3/2024

Due to limited space during dress rehearsal, we ask that no more than 2 adults accompany their dancer to dress rehearsal. This is not an open event to the public.


There will be NO CLASSES HELD the week of June 10-15 due to dress rehearsals and tech.

On dress rehearsal day, please head into the theatre upon arrival. There will be plenty of seats for each dancer to find a place for their items and parents to grab a seat and watch. Dancers and Aerialists may use the bathroom just outside the theatre to change. Please be aware that we are running on an EXTREMELY tight schedule and we cannot hold performance runs if performers are missing. Please account for traffic and other emergencies. We also recommend arriving ready to perform at least 15-20 mins ahead of your scheduled time.

Please have the correct HAIR, TIGHTS, SHOES, ACCESSORIES, and MAKEUP for dress rehearsal.

FOR ANYTHING THAT SAYS “Skin Tone Tights” PLEASE FIND THE COLOR THAT BEST MATCHES YOUR DANCERS SKIN TONE. (Cashew, Light Suntan, Suntan, Caramel, Mocha etc..)

Makeup Tutorial

The below video is intended to give dancers and parents a basic outline for stage makeup. This is our Competitive Team (TNC) makeup and is not required for the Finale Showcase. **Note, we are still not sure if masks will be required at our indoor venue in June. Please be advised that you’ll want to add blush and lipstick if masks are not worn. Lipstick colors can vary, but our recommendation is for Combo, Pre and level 1/2 dancers to wear a brighter red lipstick. For levels 3,4 and 5 we recommend a darker red/burgundy lipstick.

TIGHTS

All tights can be purchased online or in store at Dance Supplies Etc. in Severna Park. After checking your virtual costume book (bottom of page) for requirements, please use our document below to see what brand/color tights you should purchase.
