Dress Rehearsal

All 1st grade & up recreational classes will have an on-stage dress rehearsal at Lyons Township Reber Center on Wednesday, June 12. Dancers are to arrive in full costume, hair, and makeup. View the rehearsal schedule below to see your dancer's scheduled rehearsal and arrival times. Dancers may leave once they have completed their rehearsal on stage.

Dress Rehearsal Schedule

Dancers in all Twinkle Tots, Beg. Pre-Dance, Cont. Pre-Dance, Jazz it Up!, Jazzy Tumble, Hippity Hop, and Kinder Combo classes will NOT have an on stage rehearsal. Instead, an in-studio dress rehearsal will be held during their regularly scheduled class time during recital photo week.

Tight & Shoe Requirements

Recital costumes distribution will begin in the month of May. Costumes will be handed out in class. The studio policy is to hold all costumes until the family balance is current. Thank you for your cooperation in this matter. Every costume requires a particular color and type of shoes, tights, and/ or socks. Please see the Costume Accessories document to find the proper leg and footwear needed for your dancer. All tights and dance shoes may be purchased at Impact Dance Studio.

Hair & Makeup Requirements

Hair - ALL DANCERS should wear their hair in a very low, secure bun at the nape of the neck. Bobby pins, hair spray, gel, and hairnets are essential to make sure buns do not fall out while they are dancing. If your hair is too short to fit into a bun, please wear it half up, half down. Hair should be very neat and tidy. Bangs should be center parted and gelled back into the bun as well. Use matching hair colored clips if needed.

Recital Hair Bun Kit - The studio offers an optional bun kit for purchase in the main office; get them while supplies last! The kit will include 1 hair donut, a hairnet, elastic hair ties, and hair pins. This is a one stop shop for all your recital hair needs.

Makeup - It is beneficial for ALL dancers to wear makeup in order to be seen under the bright stage lights.  We recommend black mascara and a champagne colored eye shadow. Cheeks should be a true pretty pink with a red lip. Older dancers’ makeup should be applied quite heavily for the stage. Please remember that without makeup, faces become washed out from afar and difficult to see, especially on video.
