Performance Groups

Royal Easter Show 2012

Sydney Royal  Easter Show Performance and Parade – Tuesday 10th April, 2012

Rehearsal

All Performers have a compulsory rehearsal on Tuesday 3rd April 7-9pm at Dance Sensation Lane Cove. I understand for the younger students this is a later timeslot but it is a once off and the best time for us to be able to get ALL our Performance Groups together at once. At this rehearsal you will also receive your free ticket into the show and your hair and make up note.

You must bring your practice TIZZLE!  (Instructions below)

All performers need a YELLOW Dance Sensation T-shirt – let us know ASAP if you don’t have one.

All performers need BLACK shorties (short bike pants), shimmer/skin colour stockings and black dance sneakers.

Easter Show Performance

The Performance and the Parade involve ALL performers. We will supervise students backstage but immediately upon performance completion they are to be collected by a parent.

Where: TVS Community Stage, The Park, where Showground Road meets Riverina Ave

Arrive: 10:30am with hair and make-up already done. Do not go on rides before your performance.

Perform: 11am-11:20am

Parade

We will supervise students in the marshalling area but immediately upon parade completion they are to be collected by a parent at the same marshalling area. Make sure you organise for someone to hold your belongings whilst you’re performing.

Where: Marshalling area – Entertainment Undercroft on Hawksberry Street

Arrive: 2:30pm

Perform: 3pm – approx 3:30pm

The Parade route is up on the wall at the Dance studio.

Some rules for the day

  1. Be on time and know where you are supposed to be (organise to be early to allow for traffic etc)
  2. Do not wear your costumes around the show. They are only to be worn at scheduled performance times.
  3. You need to keep your hair and make up super neat for the parade (save crazy rides and messy food till after 3:30pm)
  4. Have FUN!

COSTUMES

AT YOUR NEXT CLASS – Please bring a $10 costume fee for those wearing a costume plus a tutu and a $5 costume fee for those wearing just a tutu. Accompanied by a $15 deposit. Please have your deposit in an envelope with your name on it.
