Soul to Sole Dress Rehearsal

DRESS REHEARSAL SCHEDULE

(At Noble High School) 

**Order of dress rehearsals TBD, the order pieces are rehearsed in is subject to change**

Please note - Everyone (regardless of where you are in the order) must be there promptly at the start of your rehearsal timeslot. For rehearsal, enter the theater and find the assigned seating area for you class. Please plan to arrive 10-15 minutes before the start time of your rehearsal to allow time to get settled. After your class is done rehearsing, you are free to leave or you can stay and enjoy watching the other dancers.

1. Wear your costume, with all adjustments made, all accessories in place, proper shoes, and assigned hair style done neatly. If you are wearing a leotard & tights style costume, please do not wear underpants--in performance, your dance tights become your underwear! 

2. Please remove all jewelry (other than newly pierced ear studs) and colored nail polish (don’t forget your toes if you are dancing barefoot). 

3. Report to the Noble High School Auditorium and find your class’s designated row. 

4. Watch rehearsal quietly and respectfully until a volunteer comes to take your class backstage. 

5. If you have more than one dance, change in the bathroom or backstage area and then return to the audience. 

7. Be sure you take all of your costume pieces and shoes with you when you go. 

8. Dress rehearsal is mandatory for all aerial students.

• Please arrive 10 minutes before your scheduled photo time with your order forms completed and payment ready. ***Cash or check only! ***

• Please note that we have a very tight schedule. To stay on schedule, you must arrive on time. We cannot wait for tardy dancers, as this pushes everyone else back. 

• Please attend photos even if you do not plan to place an order, as we must have the entire class present for the group photo.
