We are excited to announce this year’s recital theme and provide information on the Spring show. Our theme “The Magic of Dance” is a journey to Walt Disney World in Orlando, FL. Dances will explore all four theme parks including the Magic Kingdom, EPCOT, Animal Kingdom, & Hollywood Studios.
Why a dance recital? Dance is a performing art; therefore, it is our opinion that students should have some performing experience while still receiving strong dance technique. We offer a performance opportunity every Spring, and alternate between our showcase year (simplified performance with studio owned or student gathered costumes) and recital year (larger production, themed performance, and purchased costumes). This year is a recital year! All young children will learn a dance during their regular class time and have the opportunity to perform with their class in the recital. The recital will be held at Zionsville HS Performing Arts Center (1000 Mulberry St.) on
All dancers will be in both shows except for Music & Movement, Creative Dance, Pre-Ballet, Ballet I, & Tap I classes. In the Saturday, May 20th Show Only
In the Sunday, May 21st Show Only:
If your child's class is not listed above, they are in BOTH shows. A recital fee per family is required to participate in the show, but the show is free and open to the community, including your family & friends! The family recital fee will help pay for stage rental, auditorium personnel, programs, props, scenery and extra rehearsals. While it is not required to participate, we highly encourage your dancer to join us for the recital, so they can experience the joy of performing! Roughly 95% of our dancers participate in this show each year. The fee is $45/family to perform in the recital. This DOES NOT cover the individual costumes.
Each child in the recital will purchase a Costume for each class. This is pre-chosen by the teacher and matches the theme and style of the dance. Costume prices typically range from $50-$90 depending on the size and design. We work hard to keep the prices affordable and the costume appropriate for each dancer. Due to supply chain issues that are affecting the costume companies, we will be ordering costumes in late November. It can take a few months for them to come in from the vendors also allowing us time for alterations and adjustments. The recital participation form, recital fee, & costume fee are due in full by Wednesday, Nov. 16 Each family will receive an individual email the week of Oct. 17-20 with the recital fee, costume fee, and all links for participation and payment. To stay as organized as possible we are only accepting payment online or through ACH. If you already pay monthly and want to have this included in your November ACH payment, we must get your confirmation by November 5th. Rehearsal at Zionsville HS Star Bank PAC – We will have at least two dress rehearsals at Zionsville High School the week of the recital. Most dancers will not need to be at the rehearsals the entire time. Those in only one show will only need to attend one dress rehearsal. Specific times for all rehearsals will be announced by February and all rehearsals will be mandatory. Attendance is most important for your progress, as well as the progress of the class. If a student has missed too many lessons, a call or notice will be sent. Dance is a team sport, and every member contributes to the success of the final product. Please call 317.769.2223 or email info@villagedancestudio.com if your dancer must miss class. All students are required to attend all dress rehearsals. HELP NEEDED! Parents are needed to help with chaperoning, assisting backstage, make-up, props & scenery, costumes, and more. We ask one parent of each family to volunteer at least once the week of the recital. Keep an eye out for the Sign-Up genius which will be sent out in the spring. Want to get more information about the recital or help out with one of the areas listed above!? Join us at the October 17th Parents Council meeting upstairs at Zionsville Country Vet Clinic at 6:30pm. Questions? Please ask at the office or email info@villagedancestudio.com. The recital participation form, recital fee, & costume fee are due in full by Wednesday, Nov. 16 Each family will receive an individual email the week of Oct. 17-20 with the recital fee, costume fee, and all links for participation and payment.
