The title for our recital this year is #Dance. The venue for the rehearsal and shows will once again be at the Paul P Williams Auditorium in the Fine Arts Center of Lake Sumter State College located at 9501 US Hwy 441 in Leesburg. The rehearsal and recital dates are Thursday, May 28, 2020 at 5:00pm for tech/dress rehearsal; Friday, May 29, 2020 at 7:00pm and Saturday, May 30, 2020 at 2:00pm for the performances. Everyone is expected to be there all three days as each student will dance in both performances.
Please check your email often, that is our main form of communicating important information!
Recital packets will be handed out beginning Monday, February 24th during your students’ first classes of the week. If you do not receive a white envelope containing recital information by the end of this week, please notify the office as soon as possible. Please note the spelling of your dancer’s name on the front of the packet, this will be how it appears in the program and on the t-shirts. Let the office know as soon as possible if it is incorrect. These packets contain all the information pertaining to the recital. Please read through the entire packet and return the forms by the deadlines specified on each form.
We at Leesburg Dance Centre love recital time and we hope dancers and their families will have a positive and enjoyable experience. We will kick-off our sale of recital tickets on Saturday, May 2, 2020 from 10am-12pm. All seating is reserved. Tickets are $20 each. Tickets will also be available after the kick-off during normal office hours.
Please mark your calendars for costume week. Costume week will be held during classes April 27 thru 30, 2020. We ask that a parent or guardian please be present at these classes for instruction on dressing rooms, costumes, hair and makeup. It is important that you or someone you trust with information be present during costume weeks. Costumes will go home with your dancer provided all are paid in full. The costume book is now available in the office for viewing.
Now for some Leesburg Dance Centre news. Congratulations to Janica Balash for receiving an Excellent score from the Florida School Music Association. On February 15th she performed a dance solo in a competition through her school band color guard group. Miss Valerie, Miss Nicole, and Brooke Mann attended the NUVO dance convention in January.
Miss Sally, resident choreographer of the Melon Patch Theatre, is currently in rehearsals for Cabaret. Opening night is March 20th and continues thru April 5th. Let’s support your local theatre. Go to melonpatchplayers.org for more info. Our very own Kyleigh Jones is participating in this musical.
Summer dance camps and intensive classes dates to be announced soon. We offer open classes once or twice a month. Stay tuned for our next exciting instructor and class.
Just a reminder, it is very important for all our dancers to attend class on a regular basis. If you are unable to attend a class please notify the studio or teacher by phone, text, or email.
FYI: Fall registration will begin on Friday, July 10, 2020 from 4-7pm and continue Saturday, July 11th from 10am – 2pm. Classes will begin on Monday, August 3, 2020.
In closing, I hope everyone is enjoying their classes. Thank you for choosing Leesburg Dance Centre!
