Our Senior Shows are divided into two acts, with a 10-minute intermission in between.
Dancers in Act 1 must arrive in costume at least 20 minutes before showtime (the program order will be available closer to the show date).
Please allow extra time for parking.
Dressing rooms will be available for dancers who need a costume change.
Seating is first-come, first-served, and doors open 45 minutes before each show.
Dancers will be assigned seating with their class so they can enjoy the show when they’re not performing.
Upon arrival, please check your dancer in with the class usher.
Young dancers (ages 6-8) may sit with their families after they have finished all of their dances. If you choose this option, please inform the class usher.
The full show will run approximately 2 to 2.5 hours.
No food or drinks are allowed inside the auditorium, but guests are welcome to enjoy them in the lobby and cafeteria areas.
Please note: The auditorium does not have air conditioning, so we recommend dressing comfortably and bringing water to enjoy in the designated areas.
Please exit and enter the auditorium in between routines.
At the end of the show, all dancers are invited to take a final bow during our "Finale", though participation is optional. Dancers may leave once their class has finished performing if they prefer.
Senior Show Tickets will be available for pre-sale April 25
Senior Show Tickets: $12 each pre-sale, $15 at the door
Two free recital tickets per dancer are included in your registration
Tickets are general admission and include seating in the balcony and main floor.
To ensure that every dancer has the opportunity to have their loved ones watching on their big day, we've limited the number of tickets each family can buy during pre-sale. We've divided the seats equally among all dancers for each show. Families of Junior Show dancers can buy up to 6 extra tickets, and families of Senior Show dancers can buy up to 4 extra tickets during pre-sale.
April 25-May 9: Complimentary ticket pick up and limited pre-sale
Starting April 25th, the person who registered the dancer can pick up two free tickets for their assigned show from the office. Additional tickets can also be purchased during this time, with up to 6 per family for Junior Shows and up to 4 per family for Senior Shows. Families with unpaid tuition must clear their balance before getting tickets. Remember: Your free tickets must be picked up BEFORE the recital; they won't be available at the door.
May 11-May 28: Open sale of any remaining tickets
All remaining tickets will be available to purchase until sold out.
May 29, 30, & 31: Limited tickets available day of shows (if not sold out)
Children age 4 and under, as well as ISD dancers who are attending a sibling’s recital, are free but must have a ticket if they are using a seat. Complimentary tickets will be issued for them and count toward your family’s ticket allotment. For example, if a family is allowed 6 total tickets, 1 may be marked as complimentary for a young sibling, and the remaining 5 will be available for purchase.
Dancers performing in the show do not need a ticket. They will have a seat assigned to them.
Ticket proceeds help to cover the cost of staffing, theater and equipment rental, recital video, insurance, and lighting/sound equipment and operators. Thank you for supporting your dancer and this special event!
