Dress Rehearsal at the Rialto Square Theatre in Joliet.

All dancers are to wear their costumes and have their hair done and make up on upon arrival.

1:30  p.m.                              Dancers in Act 1 arrive

2:00-4:30 p.m.                      Act 1 (Scenes 1 & 2)

Again this year we will be utilizing a different dressing room space. This will allow dancers that are in Act 1 only to leave as the scene they are in is finished.

4:30 p.m.                               Act 2 Dancers are to arrive

5:00-7:00 p.m.                      Act 2 (Scenes 3 & 4)

7:00 p.m.                               Dismissal of Act 2 dancers

Please note: We have allowed extra time for the Dress Rehearsal to ensure that the students will be well prepared for recital night.  Because of this, we have split the arrival times by Acts to make it more convenient for the dancers and their families.  On Recital night, however, all dancers arrive at the same time, in order to lessen disruptions after the show begins.  We anticipate the recital will be 2 hours in length.  More details about Dress Rehearsal will be sent out in May. 

** We will be putting the younger dancers and those that are only in Act 1 in a separate dressing room, which will be monitored by parent volunteers.  After the scene they dance in, these dancers will be able to be signed out by a parent.  If these dancers are going to watch the remainder of the show, he/she will need a ticket to get into the theatre or sit in a designated area.  Once the dressing room mom assignments are completed, parents will know if this dismissal applies to their child.   All other dancers will be in the backstage dressing rooms and will have to stay for the entire show.  We will be utilizing this same procedure on Dress Rehearsal day in order to make sure it runs smoothly on the night of the Recital.
