Hello and welcome to today’s performances! Before we begin, a few requests to make the experience exciting and fulfilling for both you and the performers:

• Please join the Zoom concert at least 10 minutes before the start time. We will share information and let you into the main Zoom space.

• Please keep your Mics muted during the performances. However, at the end of each piece, unmute your mics, to share applause and bravos for the performers, along with any supportive comments in the chat. We will help monitor your mics as well to help out.

• We will Spotlight the performers during their performance, so you will see a full screen of the dance. We also recommend staying in speaker view to help in seeing the dance.

• While Zoom performances are exciting and offer us new ways to appreciate live dance, technology is not always reliable. If your video is glitchy, try turning off your video. If you have access to an ethernet connection rather than a wifi connection.

• We suggest using it. If you can connect to a TV or larger monitor, please do. Bigger is not always better but in this case…

Thank you and enjoy the concert!
