Mary Poppins DANCE SHOW NEWS - 2017 DIRECTIONS TO POWERS AUDITORIUM - Follow Market St. to Federal Plaza in downtown Youngstown. Take a left on to Commerce Avenue, take for approx. six blocks. This will take you to the BACK of Powers Auditorium, where limited parking is available. The actual address is 260 Federal Plaza West. BE ON TIME: Show begins at 7:00 p.m. Students are to be there at 6:15. Please be prompt and go directly to the dressing rooms. Come dressed in your first costume with a cover-up on. Apply make-up at home. Suggestions: base, lipstick, eye shadow, blush, eyebrow pencil, mascara and eyeliner. Please have hair off face and neck in either a French braid or bun. No jewelry. PARENTS PLEASE NOTE: ONLY mothers working backstage are allowed in the dressing rooms. NO EXCEPTIONS!! All others will be asked to return to the audience. BACKSTAGE GUIDELINES: listed below are specific instructions and guidelines for students and parents to follow. Your cooperation is needed to keep the performance as professional as possible. • You may send a water bottle and snack with your child if they will be downstairs in the dressing room. Please remember that your child will have their costume on. Try not to send anything that could melt or stain. • All students must report backstage prior to the show starting. • Kinderdance, “HOBBY HORSE” should come backstage after VOTES FOR WOMEN. Kindercise, “DOIN’ THE PENGUIN” should come backstage after INTERMISSION. Bring them over to the hallway on STAGE RIGHT. After their number, your child can be picked up OUTSIDE IN THE HALL ON STAGE RIGHT. Please do not attempt to come back stage, we are changing scenery and dancers are changing. It is very congested back stage due to very small wing space. The parents of these classes will receive an extra ticket for their child to sit with them. • NO STUDENTS ARE PERMITTED IN THE AUDIENCE. (The only exception is Kinderdance and Kindercise). Those not in the first half will be allowed to sit in the balcony until intermission. A volunteer will escort you to the balcony before the start of the show. Those not in the second half will be allowed to sit in the balcony after intermission until the finale line up. There will be supervision in the balcony and the students are expected to be quiet and respectful during the show. Please no yelling or loud cheering. Cover-ups must be worn whenever you are not backstage. • FINALE: When the finale is completed all younger children will REMAIN BACKSTAGE ON THE STAGE. Please come up on the stage to pick up your children after the finale. We ask that you wait a little bit, so that the older girls can clear out. We will open the curtain to let you know when it is a good time to make your way up on stage. CLASS CHARTS: (A special note from Kathi, Mary, and Lauren) - On the bulletin boards are charts for each class except Kinderdance AND Kindercise. These charts indicate your child’s progress on their dances. Your child should be checked off entirely before show time to participate. This is only fair to everyone in the dance. We will help anyone we can if they are having problems. You have received a form to fill out if you are interested in buying a cd of your music for $5.00. You may also video their number(s) if you think that might help. ATTENDANCE is a must. Please keep dance a priority at this time. If there are any problems notify us at once. We will contact you if progress is not adequate. MARY POPPINS TICKET SALES: Tickets for “Mary Poppins” are already on sale and are $19.00 each. You may purchase tickets and return those unsold, but they must be returned by June 10th at 2 p.m. to receive a refund. ABSOLUTELY NO REFUNDS FOR TICKETS AFTER THIS DATE. For anything we sell during rehearsals and show nights, a 15% charge goes to Powers. Plan your guests accordingly, so you know how many tickets you will need so all of your seats will be together. Remember you will need to know which night you want your tickets for. Anyone selling 10 tickets will receive a complimentary ticket, and a trophy so make sure your eleventh ticket is with your seats. Only one trophy per family is awarded for selling 10 tickets. If you would like to purchase another trophy for a second child for $8.00, please contact the office. You may only receive a trophy if you sell ten tickets. You are not able to just purchase a ticket trophy. VOLUNTEERS: We will need help during rehearsals and on the nights of the show. During rehearsals, we need someone to take care of the group pictures, scenery work, line up students for their dances, etc. On show night, we need help in the downstairs dressing room and in the balcony. If we don’t get enough help in the balcony, the students will have to remain downstairs and will not be able to go up to the balcony to watch the show. We have a lot of scenery work to do, so if anyone could volunteer some time here at the studio, or take work home we would greatly appreciate it. GRADUATING SENIORS: We need a senior picture for the program as soon as possible. 10 & 15 YEAR AWARD – If anybody is due for these awards please let your teacher, or the office know immediately. The ten and fifteen year awards are for anyone who has danced in ten or fifteen shows. PROGRAM ADS – there is still time to solicit an ad or put that special good luck message in our program. DANCE LINE MEMBERS – Don’t forget if you have not brought in an ad for the program there will be an assessment of $30.00 charged to your account. We are not able to put pictures in the program without the revenue from these ads. VIDEOS: Acclaim Video Productions will be shooting the video of our dance show this year. The cost of the DVD of the full show is $40.00 for one night and $70.00 for both. This includes the cost of tax & shipping to your home. Order sheets are attached and also available at the office.
