Staging Rehearsal at Bally’s Lake Tahoe Friday, June 12.
Forever Dance Staging Rehearsal
Bally’s Lake Tahoe Friday June 12th, 2025—–55 highway 50 Stateline, NV
We will have a staging rehearsal at Bally’s prior to the recital.This is not a dress rehearsal, no costumes will be worn. It is very important for the dancers to be able to have a rehearsal on the stage they will be performing on. It gives them a feel for the stage, which is a very different space from our studios. They will review their spacing and practice entrances and exits from the Bally’s stage. Especially for our first year recital students, the Staging Rehearsal opens their eyes to see that we are really putting on a show with an audience! Please do your best to make it possible for your child to be at the Staging Rehearsal. Not only will they feel more comfortable onstage for the recital, but this is part of the FUN!!
What to Wear to the staging rehearsal:
~All dancers should wear neat dance attire with hair pulled securely back in a bun or low ponytail.
~Please bring all the shoes that you will be wearing for the Recital.
~Dancers in baton, please remember to bring your batons, as we will not have extra ones at Bally’s.
~No make-up needed.
~No costumes needed.
