Junior Concert Information for Toddler Dance students:
We understand at age 2 - 3 many students will not yet be ready to perform but we also know some of you might be keen to give it a go. Toddler Dance students have the option to choose which Junior Concert (1, 2, 3 or 4 - see times above) to perform in.
Optional:
Performing is completely optional for all students. Toddler Dance students who wish to participate may nominate their preferred Junior Concert time. This performance will not be specifically with your usual class group, but you're welcome to chat with other members of your class and choose a concert to perform in together.
Short Performances:
These are in a short format similar to our 2020 and 2021 Showcases. Each performance will be 30-45 minutes long and include a variety of items from some of the classes listed above.
Supervision:
Students are supervised by Premier Dance staff throughout all performances. You will drop off your child with their group at the drop off time (see Concert Schedule) and collect them from the stage after the completion of their Concert.
No Rehearsals:
This item will not be rehearsed in class. As our little Toddler Dancers are not quite at the stage of retaining choreography, they will not be required to learn a dance or attend a rehearsal. They will dance on-stage under the instructions of our Toddler Dance teachers doing steps they are familiar with from their classes this year.
Costume:
All performers will wear a beautiful costume supplied from the Premier Dance costume wardrobe. Hire is included in the Concert Levy.
Hair & Makeup:
Girls with long hair must have a neat ballet bun (including pins, net & hairspray) and boys/girls with short hair should have it styled neatly off the face. As we are performing under theatrical lighting, stage makeup is highly recommended for all performers to ensure their beautiful faces can be seen by the audience and on the video.
Other Requirements:
All Toddler Dance performers will require ballet shoes & ballet tights.
Professional Photographs & Video:
Photo Weeks will be held during normal classes in Term 4 (exact dates TBC), with professional photographs taken by Ranald Simmonds Photography. These will be available for ordering via their website after this time. These are an optional extra for those who would like to purchase individual photos of their child in costume. All students will have the experience of professional photo shoot in costume regardless of whether or not they have chosen to perform. Photo Week dates to be confirmed soon.
All Concerts will be recorded by professional dance videographer, Limelight Multimedia. The recording of your child’s Concert will be provided to you via digital download link. This is included in your Concert Levy.
