We hope you are gearing up for the revue in a few weeks!  We are so excited about the show and have been working hard on getting everything ready.
 
Few important reminders:
Ads for programs are due TODAY.
May 1 - revue t-shirt orders due

Please read all of the attached items.  The revue guidelines contain important information about what to expect during the week of the revue (including the schedule).  The costume details contain everything you need to know about how to dress your student and how their hair needs to be worn. I'm also attached a bun making guide for the ballet students.
 
Please contact the teachers if you have any questions.
 
We are looking forward to having a great show!
