Our Tiny Tutus Recital is a lovely performance opportunity for beautiful little dancers who are just at the very beginning of their dancing ‘career’. It’s a lovely, stress-free chance to put on a beautiful costume tutu and dance on a magical stage in front of family and friends.
In term 3, our ballerinas will begin to learn a dance. This dance will be a combination of steps taught in term 3 and previous terms. Learning a routine is a wonderful way for ballerinas to have a goal to strive towards.
On the day of the recital, your Tiny Tutus class teacher will be there on the side of stage (or on stage if required) to guide our ballerinas as necessary. Some classes may be able to perform more independently than others; some classes may need more on stage guidance than others…but it doesn’t matter!!! Each ballerina is also welcome to have a parent backstage with them!
We want this to be a marvelous, exciting, beautiful introduction to performance. Please don’t feel concerned if your ballerina walks on stage, then continues just to stand and smile rather than dance. For some little people (even big people) even getting on stage in the first place is a massive achievement. Celebrate every little step -be it the right way or opposite way to everyone else!! It’s all about having fun!
Recital and Rehearsal Dates
Each ballerina will perform in one recital which will run for about 30 minutes. It’s a magical experience!!!
This year our Recitals will be held on Saturday 26th and Sunday 27th November.
Your ballerinas performance date will be given out in the coming weeks.
We have a brief Stage Orientation visit the week before, where ballerinas can come and walk on the stage, see the gorgeous backdrop and feel the lights.
Ballerinas will each ‘visit’ the theatre for about 20-30 minutes.
Recital Costs
Our Tiny Tutus Recital costs $70 per ballerina. This is a one off payment covering all cost associated with your recital and includes:
a beautiful costume tutu that is yours to keep!
hire of costume accessories (eg wings, wands, tiaras, flowers, halos etc)
stage orientation rehearsal
a gorgeous trophy to celebrate your ballerinas achievement
Your Ballerina will also need to wear their little ballet shoes that they wear in class each week as well as a pair of Tiny Tutus ballet stockings.
Note: Our total recital cost is remarkably affordable with just the costume tutu alone at other studios costing in excess of $100 alone and this doesn’t doesn’t include rehearsals or hire fees. At Tiny Tutus we strive to make dancing as affordable as possible so every family can join in.
Payment plans are also available. Please speak with our wonderful office to organise scheduled payments you can afford!
Your Tiny Tutus ballerina’s participation in our Recital is confirmed with your payment of the Recital Fee.
There is no sewing or extra work required or surprise costs, and fittings take place during class.
Unable to Participate
Please remember that participating in our recital is COMPLETELY OPTIONAL.
If you decide that you would rather your ballerina not perform in our recital that’s absolutely OK. Your ballerina will continue to come to classes as normal. Normal class activities continue, but instead of an imagery section we learn our recital routine. Your ballerina will be part of the dance, just like every other ballerina in class, just not part of the performance itself.
Recital Information Booklet
When you decide to participate in our Recital, you will be sent our ‘Recital Informational Book’. This is a fabulous, easy to understand, quick reference with everything you need to know about our recital including info about how our recitals work, tickets, DVD’s, how to do ballet buns… and lots more.
Sometimes doing a “concert” for the first time can be scary…but this is easy and everything is here for you!
