Diwali Program Guidelines for the Choreographers/participants/parents :

 All participants should have tickets even the family members who come to

see the show should buy tickets.

 Participant’s parents should bear the cost of the costumes- IAWCT is not

responsible for the cost and damage, of the costumes.

 Choreographers should send the song or back ground

track for the item/dance in MP3 format to this email

(iawct.cultural@gmail.com) by the 1st of November.

Failing to do this will disqualify their item from being staged as it

disrupts the program and causes delay if we do not have the correct music;

they have to bring the backup copy on the performance day.

 Please make sure and check the volume for the tracks. The

original volume for the track will be responsible for the

volume it will be played at in the program.

 These CD’s should have only one song, and should be labeled -Name of the

dance, Dance Number and name of the choreographer. They should collect the

CD back immediately after their dance is performed on stage (IAWCT is not

responsible to mail the CD’s later).

 Choreographers have to assign duties to two-volunteer (back stage) to help

the IAWCT Cultural team. Please send us the name and contact of these

volunteers ASAP.

 The choreographers should bring the participants backstage -two items

before their item go on stage. The choreographers should inform the

parents to collect the participants immediately after their dance.

 The participants should bring their changing cloths, bottle of water, in

their own backpacks, with a tag that tells the name of the participant,

name of the dance and phone number.

 All participants and choreographers should be present at the auditorium by

3.15 P.M and should be seated on the assigned side of the stage for the
