Recital Info

LEGACY DANCE STUDIO 2012 PRESENTS


“SEA OF DREAMS”



Rehearsal 2 – June 8th, Tennessee Performing Arts Center – Jackson Theatre – Arrive at 1:00 pm – Rehearsal Begins promptly at 2:00 pm

****The country music “fan fare” will be in town this weekend. Please try to arrive as early as possible and expect traffic to be terrible. Allow yourself extra time.********

NOTE: DUE TO CONSTRUCTION AT TPAC, PLEASE ENTER THE UNION STREET STAGE DOOR ENTRANCE FOR FRIDAY REHEARSALS AND STARUDAYS SHOW. Both ends of the sidewalk tunnel will be open for accessing the stage door entrance. Please enter the tunnel at 5th Ave. or 6th Ave. You won’t be able to enter the tunnel in the middle of the UNION STREET block.

1. Rehearsal 2 is mandatory for everyone. This is such a wonderful day of fun and friendships with teammates. Bring your cameras!

2. Bring your coolers (on wheels would be helpful for you) and a blanket. Please bring non-colored drinks such as sprites and waters. Please bring plenty of snacks and your dinner. There are a few restaurants close to TPAC but there really isn’t a lot of time to go eat and get back. Our shows move fast and we stay on time. Plus EVERYONE needs to be present for the awards ceremony.

3. Rehearsal 2 is in black dance clothing again. Please arrive with your hair and makeup ready for your first dance. This will save you time later for our dress rehearsal.

4. The non-dress rehearsal begins at 2:00 pm. We will not wait on anyone. Not trying to be mean, but we have a strict time schedule that we must stay on. We will not take our intermission during this rehearsal.

5. The TPAC production staff will be working with Shawn on lighting during this rehearsal. Please do not judge the lighting or complain about it during this rehearsal. Some moments may be dark during this rehearsal but will not be on the night of the show. They will be changing the lights trying to figure out what works best, so the night of the show will be perfect. Thanks for your understanding.

6. We will have a quick awards ceremony at 5:00 pm.

7. We will take our dinner break 5:15 – 6:00 pm. Take this time to dress in your 1st costume.

8. The full dress rehearsal will begin at 6:00 pm.

9. Please make sure students wear their Legacy Jackets or a cover up if they leave the dressing room in their costume. Students are encouraged to watch the rehearsals in the audience in their costumes with a coverup.

10. We will try not to stop the full dress rehearsal unless it is completely necessary.

11. We will rehearse finale during this rehearsal.

12. Each class will be assigned a team leader. Your team leader will be responsible for meeting you in your dressing room 6 numbers before you dance. Parents, please be sure to have your children in their dressing room ready to perform 6 numbers before their dance. This is very important to keep our show flowing. This will also ease everyone’s stress of “where do I need to be and when do I need to be there”. The team leader will take all the students to the stage and the parents can go sit and enjoy the show. The team leader will then take the students back to their dressing room to meet their parents after they dance.

13. The most important rule of this day is to relax and enjoy this day with your child. These memories will last a lifetime.

Volunteers Needed

We are having our Nolensville rehearsal on Wednesday, May 30 starting around 5:00 pm - 5:30 pm. We have 3 trucks in our family but would like to see if there are any other volunteers with trucks that could help us haul all of our props for recital to the Nolensville Elementary School for the rehearsal and then take them back to the studio after rehearsals around 9 pm. We would like to save money by not renting the big truck since we are only traveling a few miles down the road. Please email us if you can commit your truck and muscles! Thanks for all you guys do!

Little Grease Boots

Target has already ran out of some of the sizes in the black. If they are out of your size, Order the brown and we will paint them black or polish them black and add our black shoe strings.  I can't find them this cheap any where else. 

GREASE BOOTS TO ORDER - ASAP

Here is a website link to what the boots need to look like:



http://www.buy.com/prod/sweet-beauty-terra-01-women-s-mid-calf-combat-boot/223635712.html


I know they do have enough sizes at this site, but there are other sites and the style may vary a bit, but DO NOT ORDER THE ONES THAT HAVE THE FOLD DOWN FLAP in the next link below
**********
DO NOT ORDER THE ONES THAT LOOK LIKE THIS: no no no
http://www.amazon.com/Neway-Womens-legend-03-Combat-Beston/dp/B007GGOX2W/ref=pd_sbs_shoe_10
******** no no no


Here are other possible sites that is very close but a little more expensive:
http://www.amazon.com/Madden-Girl-Womens-Zorrba-Boot/dp/B004BDHOZG
and another site:
http://www.amazon.com/Sweet-Beauty-terra-01-Womens-combat/dp/B005EEJTAO/ref=pd_sxp_grid_pt_0_2
This site has size 6 and 6.5
http://www.amazon.com/Military-Inspired-Lace-Plaid-Black/dp/B00787MXLC/ref=pd_sbs_shoe_1
these are close: Maybe we could cut off the buckle?
http://www.amazon.com/Military-Inspired-Combat-Lace-Black/dp/B007O1PO90/ref=pd_sbs_shoe_4

Baby BombShells and ThunderBoltz that wear small sizes. Here is a link. We will remove the pink shoelaces and replace them with black. Remember to order the black boot.

Parents, Are you READY???!!!

We are bringing back the 70's for "Sea of Dreams" with your help.  We would like to get at least 5 sets of couples to do one part and then there are several different parts where we will need single dancers as well.  We will be bringing dancers on and off and you will not have to learn as much.  It should be fun and very entertaining!  Our music was $100 to have mixed, so if you could pay $5 to help cover that, that would be great.  We need as many as possible, couples and non-couples.  There will also be Afros and funky 70's clothing involved!  We will plan on starting next Friday night, May 11th at 7:00 pm.  Hope everyone will participate and we need as many Dads as possible!
