2024 Company Dress Rehearsal Weekend:
Click HERE for the full details and schedule of our 2/24-2/25 Company Dress Rehearsal Weekend. Updated 2/20/24.
Week before Dress Rehearsals, Performance/Competitions/Mandatory Events:
The week before dress rehearsal/performance/competition and any mandatory scheduled rehearsals, are just that, mandatory. Failure to attend rehearsal or class be it for cleaning, choreography, or technique, may result in removal from part or whole of choreography or performance. Not all situations are the same and will be handled on an individual basis. There will be no refunds for competition entries.
Any company dancers, Level 1 or 2, will have an adjusted schedule the weeks leading up to dress rehearsal and/or competition weekends. We often have to change times/days to accommodate rehearsal schedules for those that have their weekly classes during the various events. Full updated schedules will be available in DSP calendars in January 2024. Dancers will be required to be at all rehearsals.
Music/Rehearsal Videos:
We will be using WBDC/DSP account for all Music and Rehearsal Videos.
Music will be uploaded after the first night of class.
Rehearsal Videos will be uploaded for classes as it makes sense to create them.
