Timings:
All Dancers will need to be dropped off at the backstage door promptly at 9:30am for a dress/tech run, please then collect children at 12:15pm for a lunch break. Dancers will need to return at 1:50pm ready for the show. The show will start at 2:30pm so please make your way round to the theatre after you have dropped off your child. Please collect children once the show has finished from the backstage door, I expect the show to be roughly 1hr 45mins.
Details:
Please drop off/collect children at the backstage door, if you’re facing the theatre it’s round to the right hand side (on lower level). Opposite Tesco car park, it’s not obvious so don’t be alarmed if you can’t see it straight away. Please look out for you child's group sign as this is where your child will need to be signed in/signed out (Each group will have their own chaperone) Children who attend more than 1 class will need to sign in at 'Quick Changers'

Children are welcome to bring snacks (mess free and no nuts please), a bottle of water (No fizzy drinks/milkshakes) and something to keep them entertained e.g colouring/book. (No pens/messy activities/ anything of value as we cannot accept responsibility for any items)
