FAQs

 

Q - How long is the Showcase?​

A- The Showcase is in two parts.

  • Part One features our Summer Session classes and Dance Intensive and runs approximately 75 minutes. Part 1 of the Showcase will conclude around 2:45 PM.

  • Part Two begins after a 15-minute intermission and features solo, duet, and trio performances from the Student Choreography Workshop. It is approximately 45 minutes long. Part 2 of the Showcase will conclude around 3:45 PM.

 

Q - When will my dancer be dismissed?​

A- The Showcase has two parts, and dismissal times vary by group:

  • Early Childhood students will be dismissed during a pause approximately 40 minutes into the Showcase.

  • Dance Intensive students will be dismissed at the end of Part One, around 2:45 PM.

  • Student Choreography Workshop (solo/duet/trios) dancers will be dismissed at the end of Part Two, around 3:45 PM.

Q - My dancer wants to stay and watch the Student Choreography. Do they need a ticket?

A- If you’d like your dancer to sit with you, then yes, they’ll need a ticket. That said, many audience members leave after the first portion, so there are usually empty seats available for dancers to sit in. Please note that due to fire code, everyone must be seated in a chair.
