Costumes, Hair, Makeup, Tights and Shoes
Recital Costumes:
We will be sending costumes home in the coming days and weeks.
It’s very IMPORTANT you take very good care of your costumes.
The costumes will be sent home in a small plastic bag, please remove them and steam if needed and hang up.
DO NOT LET YOUR DANCER PLAY IN THEIR COSTUME UNTIL AFTER THE RECITAL!
We have very few extra costumes if any and it would be difficult and in some cases impossible to get an extra costume in time for the show. Plus it would mean you would incur extra costs as well.
