Schools are encouraged to watch some or all of the other technical rehearsals on the day.
Schools should arrive no later than 30 minutes before their rehearsal slot times.
Schools are encouraged to come dressed in costume ready for their rehearsal. This is particularly important for those schools in the 9 am to 10:30 am rehearsal slot. Students may change out of their costumes following their rehearsal to watch the other schools rehearse.
Travelling schools are welcome to change into costumes upon arrival.
All schools must do their tech rehearsal in costume. This is required to assist the lighting technician with lighting design. Correct hair and makeup (if applicable) are not essential for the tech rehearsal.
Each school will be given approximately 15 to 20 minutes on stage to rehearse. This should allow for an initial blocking of students followed by 2 run-throughs of their performance piece.
Schools are encouraged to watch other schools rehearse both in their time slot and in other time slots.
Schools will be marshalled from the seats for their rehearsal, with one school on stage and one school waiting backstage ready to perform.
It is the responsibility of the teacher to ensure students are adequately warmed up before rehearsing and performing.
Please ensure a copy of the music is put into the STDF 2024 - Teacher drive folder and also that you bring a spare copy with you on the day.
