Q.
My child still doesn't have a costume, when will we get it?
A. Your child has been given a performance leotard which is to be worn at the
rehearsals and performance. Your child is to keep these leotards, please don't
lose them or damage them. They will be used next year as their class leotard and
for exams. If your child loses or damages the leotard, you will have to purchase
a replacement. The rest of the costume will be at the Ragan Theatre and kept with
the School of Ballet Arts until after the recital to help keep them clean and
from becoming lost. Have your child show up to both the dress
rehearsal and recital wearing their class leotard and light pink or white tights
(this is for lighting purposes). Also,
have your child's hair in a bun
or neatly pulled back if not long enough for a bun. Please label all personal
belongings with your child's first and last name, especially bags, warm up clothes,
leotards, ballet shoes, tap shoes, street shoes, change of clothes, and water
bottles.
Q. My
child wasn't given the entire costume she wore on stage, where is the rest of
it?
A. The accessories of your child's costume (head pieces,
some tutus, and other embellishments) belong to the School of Ballet Arts. We
reuse these pieces year after year and it helps us keep costs down.
Q.
What does my child wear to the recital?
A. Have your
child show up to both the dress
rehearsal and recital wearing their class leotard and light pink or white tights

not long enough for a bun. Please label all personal belongings with your child's
