It's show day!!! Now is the time to enjoy all the hard work and dedication of the students, teachers and their families. We pride ourselves on running an organized, energetic and talent filled show. We invite you to sit back, relax and simply enjoy the show! See below for "show day" procedures and show orders.

IMPORTANT REMINDER:

More than one class is doing the same song. Make sure you know which show YOUR class does your song. 

SHOW ORDERS POSTED ON 2ND TAB OF MAIN INFO CHART! CLICK HERE!

Dancers MUST arrive and check in 30 minutes before their show begins. 

Example: Dancer check in at 12:30pm for the 1:00 show: 

Don't worry, there will be LDC staff there to help!

• ALL dancers should arrive in their first costume, with hair and makeup done. You should ONLY bring the items you need for the show. The studio and/or theater are not responsible for any lost items. 

• Dancers in ONLY one dance, should not bring anything else with them. 

• Dancers in multiple dances should tape the show order to their garment bags, WITH their dances highlighted. This helps ensure that quick changes happen smoothly. Show orders/assignments will be/are on THE MAIN INFORMATION CHART.

CHECK-IN/CHECK-OUT PROCEDURE: 

• • Dancers in a 2-3, 4-5 or 6-8 year old class, Darby's Dancers AND ALL BOYS you will check in down the hallway to the LEFT of the lobby. 

    • See diagram and video above...need to turn the corner at the end of the hall

  • Darby's Dancers families...you will meet in the hallway to the LEFT of the theater about 10 minutes before the start of the show. You will pick up your dancer immediately after their dance (#3) in this same hallway. 

  • Only ONE parent should come with your dancer to check-in. 

    • The parent will be given a note card with the dancer's name on it. You must keep this card and return it at pick up after the show. 

    • Parents will exit the theater after the show and ONE PARENT may go down the  same hallway you dropped off your dancer to pick up your dancer. Return the card to LDC staff and go celebrate a great show! 

  • Dancers in a 9-12, teen or adult class: Find the table to the right of the theater. You will check in with an LDC team member and go directly backstage. 

    • See diagram and video above...table is to the left of the restrooms.

  • It's that simple! After the show, you will be released down the SAME hallway and enter the lobby near the restrooms to go meet your family and friends outside. 

• • FOR SECURITY PURPOSES... dancers will remain backstage the ENTIRE show.  There are NO parents backstage during the show. Thank you for understanding and for your cooperation. 

PRINT THE SHOW ORDER, highlight your dances and attach to your garment bag. This REALLY helps the dancers AND the backstage helpers with any quick changes. 

**REMINDER-When layering tights...TAN GOES UNDER PINK** It can not go the other way around (pink under tan) or your legs will look like they are made of wood!

DANCERS AGE 9+ WITH MULTIPLE DANCES/QUICK CHANGES: It's SUPER helpful to bring a laundry basket with you. Then during those quick changes, you can simply toss your items in the bin and they will be all together for you once you are done! MAKE SURE YOUR NAMES ARE ON EVERYTHING, including the laundry basket!!! And check that you have everything BEFORE leaving after the show!!

IF YOU ARE IN BACK TO BACK SHOWS:  Be sure to pack some healthy food to eat outside the theater between show to keep your energy up!  

• • Better yet!! Pre-order a cousins sub and have your food ready for you (food truck will be in the parking lot between the 10am & 1pm shows only).

    • ORDER HERE!!

• You may get dressed in your second costume, before check in begins, in the lobby restrooms (if under the age of 9) OR backstage if over the age of 9 (but be sure to check in so we know you're here!)
