Performances

Recital is scheduled for the end of the school year.  This is when students perform what they have learned throughout the year.  Costumes will be required if a student is to participate in  the recital.  Costumes cost $50 - $85 per costume (ballet/tap combo classes will have one costume and perform one routine).  There will be a recital fee of $50.00 per student due April 1st.  All costume moneys will be due and payable in full by January 15th for your child to participate in the recital.   Stage Door School of Dance also performs at and for various civic organizations in town and out of town during the year to enhance our performance skills and to instill self-confidence, for instance; Senior Citizen Centers, Area Malls, Midlothian Fall Festival, Dance for the Planet Festival, and Midlothian Spring Fling, are a few.  Check your yearly planner for dates & times of events.  Recital is scheduled in June.  June is a full month's tuition.

The recital is a major device used by this school to MOTIVATE your child.  It is something he or she can look forward to or back upon with pride. 

Because of the training and discipline involved, we attempt to create a professional attitude.  All is done to make this a pleasant and worthwhile experience for your child and you.  WE CANNOT DO THIS WITHOUT YOUR COOPERATION

One learns to perform by performing.  The recital is to demonstrate talent and is a part of the training experience.  Recitals must aim to develop the student's poise, confidence, and pride, and also increase her knowledge and appreciate of the Arts.  Therefore, OUR MAIN GOAL - THE CHIEF PURPOSE IS THE PLEASURE, EDUCATION AND MOTIVATION OF THE STUDENT.....

IMPORTANT:  Backstage, as well as on stage, a student should strive to be professional, courteous, and an inspiration to her colleagues and to her teachers.  DO NOT FORGET THAT OTHERS WOULD ENJOY HEARING KIND WORDS FROM YOU.
