BACKSTAGE GUIDELINES

To make sure keep our dancers safe and our venue clean, please review our backstage guidelines listed below!

PLEASE MAKE SURE YOUR EMERGENCY CONTACT INFORMATION IN THE PARENT PORTAL IS UP TO DATE. 

We utilize this number incase of any backstage emergencies or if we need to get a hold of you during the run of the show. 

DANCERS PLEASE ARRIVE BY 6PM!

- Dancers should be dropped off in the Commons of Blesch Auditorium. This is our "green room" for any dancers waiting to perform. Enter in the 11th Ave Entrance of the school, or through the Blesch Lobby and down the hallway. Again, no men and only one adult with each dancer please. 

- Only one family member per dancer is allowed backstage for drop off & pick up.  Backstage can get chaotic quickly, and we like to ensure a relaxing and calm backstage environment.

-Men are not allowed backstage at anytime (with the exception of those in the cast and stage crew.) We will have designated changing tents for our Senior dancers in the hallway and will have security on hand to make sure this space is secure. 

-We will be handing out wristbands for family members responsible for pick-up when you drop off your dancer.  Those without wristbands will not be allowed backstage at intermission or during the run of the show.


- Please initial EVERYTHING. Costumes, shoes, etc.  Every year we come home with a box full of things that we don't know who they belong to.  We always want to make sure you get anything you may have left behind. 
 
- Avoid bringing tablets, laptops or expensive/cherished toys. We have activities and volunteers backstage that will keep kiddos occupied while the show is running. If you do bring anything, please initial it incase it's lost.  We are not responsible or liable for lost or stolen personal items. 
 
- There is no food or beverages allowed backstage, aside from water bottles. Please no eating in your costumes! 

- After show, families can pick up dancers in the commons.  You're welcome to join us back on stage for photos with dance friends and faculty members!
