Spring Showcase 2010

What

What are the Spring Showcases?
Just like most studios, we have a year-end revue (some call it a "recital"). However, we prefer to call it our Spring Showcases! Our event is way more than a "recital"; it's an entertaining production that the whole family will enjoy! We go out of our way to make sure the show is fun and unique!! We constantly receive compliments about how fun our shows are. Yes, even the Dads enjoy themselves at one of our shows. We're so proud of our event, and we believe it’s the best year-end revue you'll ever see!

When

When are the Spring Showcases?

"Tumblers love to be in the spotlight, too!"

Tumblers in the Spring Showcases

Our annual Spring Showcases include performances by dancers and tumblers who have worked hard on their skills all year, and are ready to show off for friends and family. All children love to dress up and perform on this special day—a day just for them!

Will they wear a costume?

Yes! Our theme this year is “Bugs”!! (Butterflies, ladybugs, caterpillars, ants, bees, spiders, etc.). Our tumblers will be dressed as bumble bees. The girls will wear a yellow Lycra top, black shorts. We will add black sequin stripes and some ribbons for their hair. A sample photo of the girls’ costume is in the costume binder located at the front desk. Boys costume will be a yellow T-shirt with bee stripes, and black pants.

What exactly will they do during the performance?

Their routine will have some simple dance steps in it, and as many tumbling tricks as they know how to do. We use mats on stage for safety. It’s a lot of fun!

When will they learn and practice the routine?

There will be six rehearsals, held on Monday evenings, 30 minutes each:

  • April 26
  • May 3
  • May 10 (plan to stay after your rehearsal for “picture day”)
  • May 17
  • May 24
  • No class on May 31st—Memorial Day
  • Junes 7

Depending on which show your child is assigned to, the rehearsals will be held at the following times:

Which Showcase? Rehearsal Day/Time
Show #1 Mondays 6:15-6:45 pm
Show #2 Mondays 6:45-7:15 pm
Show #3 Mondays 7:15-7:45 pm

IMPORTANT: In order to minimize costs, we are only holding 6 rehearsals. In our experience, children need all 6 rehearsals without missing any weeks, to fully understand what to do during the routine. If anyone is absent, it will confuse your child as well as the other children. This can cause “traffic problems” (i.e., accidentally go the wrong way, run into each other, tumble at the wrong time, etc.) which may cause injury. That’s why we are asking for you to consider the commitment. If you think you will miss more than one Monday, or the June 12 rehearsal, perhaps you should not participate this year. Thank you.

Who is the teacher?

Miss Christy, our Assistant Tumbling Director, will be the teacher & choreographer.

How much is participation?

The fee for participation is:
$45.00—Costume
$30.00—Tuition for the rehearsals
Total: $75.00—what a bargain!!!

Tickets to the show are additional.

When do we need to decide by?

The deadline to register is February 27. Why so early? Even though rehearsals don’t begin until April, we need time to order and alter costumes. Sign up now!

What if we change our mind? Can we get our money back?

Yes! If you cancel before April 1st, we can refund $30.00. However, there will be no refunds after April 1st.

How do we sign up?

See your teacher or go to the front desk.
