 This year, you will have the opportunity to order all of your favorite concert goodies at the
 costume pick up event. Concert flowers, program ads, T-shirts, and videos will all be available
 to order during your costume pick up day! The PRODIGY Faculty will be there to help you
 place your orders and answer any questions that you may have!

 What do I need to do with my dancer’s costume(s) after I pick it up?

 Have your dancer try on her/his costume as soon as they receive it. Your student’s costume
 was ordered based on measurements taken in October paired with the size chart that each
 manufacturer provided. Some costumes will fit perfectly while others may need alterations to
 fit right. Some costumes will require hemming or elastic shoulder strap stitching. Please make
 sure that alterations are taken care of for costumes in need of adjustments by the end of April.
 Most costumes will require light steaming or pressing, due to shipping and packaging. Thank
 you for your time and preparation to ensure all costumes are stage performance ready upon
 arrival at the theater.

 Do we need specific tights for the concert?
 A costume sheet for each dance is available at prodigydancecentrega.com under the tab “2018
 SPRING RECITAL.” On these costume sheets you will find specifics on the required tights,
 accessories, shoes, and additional costume notes from your teacher for each dance. Costume
 sheets are sorted by day of the week and room number. You can find your class day, and time
 on the left hand side of the costume sheet.

Concert Hair & Makeup

                                                                                                    CONCERT HAIR & MAKEUP
                 3 Reasons to wear Stage Makeup for Dance Performances

1. Distance between the performer and the audience: Your makeup actually needs to be dark
   enough for your features to be visible to the first 8 – 12 rows of the theater.
2. Intense stage lighting: Stage lighting can really “flatten” your features and take away all of
   the dimensions that help the audience see your facial expressions clearly. Stage makeup can
   be seen under colorful, intense stage lighting – it won’t disappear when the lights hit you.
3. Decorative costuming: Your performance makeup is part of your costume

Dancers use their craft to tell a story for the audience, projecting emotions, words and ideas
with their movements. The ability to wordlessly translate their feelings for the crowd is a
refined skill. Dancers need to use their whole bodies and the expressions on their faces to help
convey the emotions of the moment. But with the bright, shinning lights flooding the stage, it’s
easy for dancers’ expressions to be washed out. That means the subtle nuances that are
essential for setting the tone for their story to be over-looked. For younger dancers, having
well-applied stage makeup for kids makes all the difference. By highlighting dancers’ facial
features, it makes it easier for the audience to see their expressions. It’s important and
long-standing tradition in the community for dancers to include stage makeup as a routine
component of their costumes. For stage makeup application tips, visit:

ers/?utm_source=Pinterest&utm_medium=Referral&utm_campaign=Dancers

How should my dancer’s hair be worn?
The required hair style and instructions can be found on the costume sheet for each dance.
A costume sheet for each dance is available at www.prodigydancecentrega.com under the tab
“2018 SPRING RECITAL” Costume sheets are sorted by day of the week in the website
document. You can find your class day and time on the left hand side of the costume sheet.
Please reach out to your TEACHER if you need help or guidance on your student’s assigned
concert hair style.

CONCERT STAGE MOM CREW
Join our Prodigy Stage Mom Crew
Join our PRODIGY stage mom crew!
Calling ALL PRODIGY SUPER MOMMAS!
We need YOU BACKSTAGE!!
Why are stage moms a necessity to the concert?
Each class MUST have at least one Stage Mom for the students to be properly chaperoned
during the performance. Being a PRODIGY Stage Mom is an extremely rewarding
experience for the mom as well as an exceptional way to support your child and her/his
classmates. Volunteering is a fun way to help with the concert and share each moment of event
excitement with your student.

Stage Moms will be accepted on a first-come basis. Combined classes and large classes will
need two stage moms.

Stage Mom duties include:

  •            Help relay information to other parents in the class and answer their
		             questions when possible.

  •            Help with your class at dress rehearsal. PERK!!! While the students are on stage
  		           rehearsing the stage mom can video or take photos from the front row. Stage
		             Moms will watch from the stage wings at the concert performance.

  •            Help with your class backstage during the concert performance. This includes
		             overseeing your class for the entire show, helping them on and off stage, and
		             monitoring your class when they are not performing.

If you have questions about our STAGE MOM CREW please call the office 706.221.5566

Concert Dress Rehearsal
Concert Dress Rehearsal
When is dress rehearsal?
Your dress rehearsal will take place on Friday May 4th. Your dancer should arrive “stage
ready” in their costume (with a cover up) and in full hair and make up for the dress rehearsal
20 min before the start of the rehearsal. The dress rehearsal process involves many different
elements of production. Please be flexible on dress rehearsal day as we professionally prepare
our dancers, stage crew, and choreographers.

How should my dancer arrive for dress rehearsal?
PRODIGY strives to cultivate an environment of young professionals who appreciate the
entire production process. Requiring appropriate costume cover-ups for our cast is part of that
training process. Performers should always wear a cover-up over their costume when entering
and exiting the building. An oversized white button up dress shirt is an ideal option that will
not interfere with hair and make up preparation while providing length for good costume
coverage.

Your dancer should arrive “stage ready” in their costume (with cover-up) and in full hair and
make up for the dress rehearsal.

Where do I drop my dancer off for the dress rehearsal?
The dancer needs to be dropped off at the backstage door were our Stage Manager will check
you in. On dress rehearsal night everyone will go to the audience and wait to be called
backstage to their dressing room. Once everyone is situated in his or her dressing rooms we
will start the rehearsal.

On performance day each dancer will come in the backstage door and check in with our Stage
Manager and then go directly to their dressing room.

No one will be allowed in the theater lobby on dress rehearsal night.

Who can attend dress rehearsal?
All dress rehearsals are closed to the general public, extended family member, and friends.
ONLY the parents/guardians of the students performing in the concert will be allowed to
watch and video record their dancer’s dress rehearsal from the “PARENT ZONE” section. This
roped off section will be the last two rows of the theater. Parents will be ushered in and out of
the dress rehearsal by a PRODIGY faculty member through the side entrance. The auditorium
is dark so have your cameras ready to operate prior to entering the theater. There is not an
electrical power source nearby. NO ONE (other than the performers, PRODIGY faculty, and
the stage mom) will be permitted past the “PARENT ZONE” section or near the stage area.
If for any reason the “PARENT ZONE” creates a distraction for the dancers, the PRODIGY
faculty will close the section.

Why are dress rehearsals limited to parents only?
A closed rehearsal allows the students to give full attention to their teachers and production
crew during their allotted stage time. Limiting interruptions allows the cast and crew to create
a productive rehearsal, maintain the rehearsal schedule, and produce a show with intentional
professionalism.
Concert Performance Expectations

                                                                                                      Concert Performance Expectations
When and where does my dancer go before, during, and after the concert
performance?

Before YOUR PERFORMANCE: All dancers need to be at the theater in costume (with
cover-up), hair, and make up no later than 2:00pm. Dancers need to be dropped off at the 1st
ave. stage door where they will be checked in and taken to their dressing room by the Stage
Mom. Due to space limitations and security protocol parents will not be allowed in the dress-
ing room or backstage area. After dropping your dancer, please join our other concert guests
through the main entrance of the theater.

During THE PERFORMANCE: During the show, students will remain together, on and off
stage, with their class and Stage Mom. If they are in more than one dance the Stage Mom of
the first dance will make sure your dancer gets ready for their next dance. Our teachers will
also be backstage to help with costume changes and quick changes.

PERFORMANCE DISMISSAL EXPECTATIONS: Young students (Pre K classes & Hippity
Hoppity) who perform before intermission will be released to their parents at intermission.
Parents will come back to the backstage door entrance and pickup their kids. If your dancer
would like to experience the second act of the concert from the audience, they will need to
wear a cover-up. Students will not need a ticket to watch the concert. All other dancers will
take part in our final curtain call bow and will not be released from their dressing rooms until
after the curtain call. The RiverCenter dismissal security protocol requires complete compli-
ance by PRODIGY dancers and faculty. There will be no exceptions to the pick up and drop
off procedures listed above.

After THE PERFORMANCE & CURTAIN CALL: After the show parents will meet their
dancer in the backstage waiting area

When will the theater doors open for the concert?
Doors open at 2:00 sharp. We ask that you help us ensure the most professional atmosphere
possible for our dancers and concert guests. There will be no entering or exiting the theater
while a performance is taking place on stage.

Is there an intermission during the concert?

There will be a 15 minute intermission during the show. Please show your admiration and
appreciation for each dancer with applause, but do not shout names or yell during the per-
formance. The theatre is a great environment for energy and excitement, we appreciate your
etiquette and good judgment with celebration from the audience.

Why is video recording not allowed during the concert?
PRODIGY dance does not allow video recording or flash photography during our shows for
safety reasons as well as courtesy to others. Cameras make it difficult for others to see the stage
clearly and distract those around you with screen illuminations. The ushers monitor the “no
camera policy” carefully.
