COSTUMES & PICTURE DAY:
★Costumes and tights are now being disbursed. Please try on and check through your costume and accessories when you receive them. A few late or changed orders are still expected. We will notify you individually when these late orders arrive.
★Most of our costumes have extra accessories that need to be sewn on or placed in specific ways on the costumes. We will discuss this at watch week. If you miss watch week, please stop by the desk as soon as possible to pick up your costume and check on these accessories.
★Performers should wear light eye shadow, blush, and lipstick so as not to appear “faceless” under the bright stage lights. Light makeup should also be worn for pictures. Please do not wear any hair or body glitter, or jewelry of any kind.

ALL RECREATIONAL PICTURES WILL BE TAKEN ON SATURDAY JUNE 3rd.
ONE PARENT SHOULD ACCOMPANY EACH CHILD ON THIS DATE.
★Purchase of individual photos is optional, and several packages are available. Father Daughter pictures will be held on 5/20 with their practice & dress rehearsal.

SHOWCASE TICKETS: All outstanding balances must be paid in full to purchase tickets (excluding auto w/d customers)
★Seating is NOT assigned this year, it is general admission. We do not anticipate the 1300 seat theater being more than half full at any given time so there will be PLENTY of room and great seats for all attendees. We do NOT recommend attendance for anyone with underlying health conditions, and wheelchair access is NOT easily accommodated at this 100-year-old venue.

THERE WILL BE ABSOLUTELY NO TICKETS AVAILABLE FOR SALE AT THE DOOR.
ALL TICKETS MUST BE PRE-PURCHASED!
Bundle-ticket purchases will be available to pick up the week of May 8th. Those who are NOT purchasing tickets in the bundle will need to call or email their order to the studio no later Thursday 5/18/23. Starzoakgrove@gmail.com or 816-690-7771.
