At the end of each dance season we give all of our dancers an opportunity to perform on stage in front of a large audience at our annual Dance Recital. Recital is not mandatory, however we highly encourage participation to develop confidence and stage presence as a culmination of what they have been working on for the year. Tickets will go on sale in March 2024.
- Recital Tickets - Due to the new venue and how they sell tickets, there are no free tickets this year (your recital fee was lowered because of this).There is no limit to how many tickets you can purchase. There will be 2 types of seat tickets you can purchase. You will be able to select "Reserved Seating" tickets that will be closer to the stage (these will be assigned seats) or "General Seating" tickets that will be open seating. Reserved seating tickets are $20 each and general seating are $15 per ticket. This ticket purchase is going through the venue's ticket system so you will need to put in your credit card information (I will not be able to use the credit card on file). Everyone entering the recital will need a ticket (2 and under are free). Recital Ticket Link:
- Recital Program Ads - If you would like to place a recital ad in this year's program the deadline is Monday, May 8th. I have attached the ad form for you to fill out.

- Recital Flowers - We have hired a company to come out and provide fresh flowers for our recital shows this year. Below is a pre-order link from the company to pre-purchase flowers. If you do not get a chance to pre-order flowers, the company assures me that they will bring enough flowers to sell the day of the shows. The flower orders will be ready for pick up at your student's show. Recital Flower Link:
