Costumes
We like to keep our Winter Whimsy costumes simple and easy for families! Each dance will have a small costume fee for teachers to order costume pieces (things like matching skirts, accessories, matching shirts etc.). You will be asked to provide some items from your dancer’s class dress code, like tights and leotards. “Following the regular dress code during the semester will make this process as smooth as possible.
More detailed costume information will come out as we get closer to the show, including any pieces of clothing provided from home. Once all costume pieces have arrived, we’ll hand them out during class. Please note that costumes are not custom-made, so some alterations may be required. If the costume requires a part of Airborne Dance’s studio dress code and your dancer has not purchased it yet, we may ask you to do so. Other than that, we will do our best to work with what you have at home already!
Hair and Make-up
Directions for hairstyle and makeup will be sent home with the costume along with any alterations instructions. Makeup should be kept pretty simple. Light stage makeup is preferred.
Participation
All DancingBees, DanceNastics, Mini Dance, Leveled Techinique students as well as Airborne Company dancers will be automatically opted into the Winter Whimsy, however, participation is optional for all academy dancers. If students choose not to participate, you will need to opt-out prior to October 10th through our office. Students who choose to opt-out will still learn the choreography and practice performing in class with their peers. *Select classes of the same style and age group may be combined based on enrollment numbers. Certain specialty classes will not perform, as they are based mainly on technical growth over performance. The deadline to opt-out is October 10th.
Fees and Payments
There will be a $65.00 participation fee for each performing student as well as a $30.00 costume fee per dance. The participation fee also includes 2 complimentary tickets. Additional tickets will be available for purchase at Airborne for $10.00 per ticket.
Example: 1 Dance, Ballet Level 1 = $65.00 + $30.00 = $95.00 total
Example: 2 Dances, Ballet 1 & Academy Musical Theater = $65.00 + $30.00 + $30.00= $125.00 total
Tickets
Each dancer will receive 2 complimentary tickets. Additional tickets will be available for purchase at Airborne for $10.00 per ticket.
Attendance
Attendance is required for both Dress Rehearsal and the Show. Please make sure you can attend both days. Class attendance is also important as teachers begin to teach choreography. The more your dancer is present in class the more confident they will feel on stage!
