Now its time to get ready for show number two!!
Congratulations to everyone who danced their hearts out last night!! I hope you enjoyed the show as much as I did!! I am super proud and cant wait to see you all during the week to hear all your stories. I would like to take this opportunity to thank again three dance club mom's, mairead, peggy and jenny, whom without their help in setting up the hall, their encouragement and constant statements of "Its going to be alright" I dont think there would have been a show at all! Thank You, thank you, thank you!
Now its time to get ready for show number two!!

SHOWCASE: LATEST NEWS & UPDATES
Thank you for your feedback so far... DISCOUNT 2ND NIGHT TICKETS: If you son(s)/daughter(s) are performing on both show nights, you are eligible for the Discount 2nd Night Ticket. These tickets are available from the studio BEFORE the show dates and entitle family members to pay just 2 euro per person for the second night. Please note: this offer is not available at the door and must be purchased BEFORE the 29th May. UNIFORM FOR HIRE Any student who requires the dance club uniform for the show but does not have one (and does not want to use the ‘alternative’ suggestion) may hire the uniform items from the studio. These items will then be made available on the night of the show and MUST be returned at the end of the show. A total of 3 euro per item will be charged and MUST be paid before the night of the show. Please note all items of uniform are available from the studio for purchase. DRESS REHEARSALS The dress rehearsals take place in Fatima Hall in the afternoon before the show. To get to Fatima Hall: from Main street Wicklow: Turn up right at the town Hall (Billy Byrne Monument) and follow the road past Wicklow Gaol until you see a very large red building in front of you (Dominican convent). Drive through the gateway and turn left towards the red building (not towards organic farm shop). Park in the spaces provided and walk past the front entrance to the building and up the path in front of you to the large doors at the end of the path. JEWELLRY & HAIR ACCESSORIES Please leave ALL watches, earrings, necklaces, rings, hair bands, coloured clips at home. None of these items are permitted on stage/in the performance. CLEAN & TIDY Please make sure all uniform/costume items are clean, INCLUDING RUNNERS!!!! RECESSION RAFFLE There will be a raffle (and winners) on both show nights. Top prizes include a free TERM FOR THE 2010-2011 YEAR as well as uniform items and other items! WOW! J HELP MEEEEE! Any able bodied parents out there willing to lend a hand to put out chairs etc???? If you can spare an hour or two I (and my backstage crew) would really appreciate it! We desperately need bodies between 12 & 1pm on Saturday 29th May and after the show (approx 8-9pm) on Sunday 30th May. Thank you to all parents who have offered their support so far. Also, does anyone want to set up & run a refreshments stand pre-show & at interval? Maybe a parent’s association raising funds?? Let me know ASAP in the studio or on 086 1738272. ANY OTHER CONCERNS OR QUESTIONS? PLEASE SEE ME IN THE STUDIO OR TEXT 086 1738272. I WILL DO MY BEST TO COME UP WITH A SOLUTION (OR HEAR SUGGESTIONS). I have deliberated over the running order and scheduling of the showcases with a belief that I can find a running order that pleases each family & student. Unfortunately, I have regretfully been beaten into submission to admit that this is actually an impossible task. Therefore I am extremely apologetic if brothers, sisters or students of multiple classes are split across the two days!! Hopefully this will not ruin the enjoyment of 9 months hard work!!
With regards costumes, if there is a problem acquiring any item, please contact me to arrange an alternative. I have not charged students for costume hire, but hope they can use some of their own items of clothing to keep costs down.)

CHOREOGRAPHY COMPETITION Congratulations to all students who took part in the 2010 choreography competition. I was super proud of the talent present in the school! I am currently running tutorials for all the winners on Wednesdays 5-6pm in preparation for the showcase. SUPER TROOP Auditions were held on 24th April and 9 successful dancers from across the age groups were chosen. We had our first rehearsal on 1st May and I am very excited with the progress so far. Thank you to all the dancers who attended the audition, I was really impressed with the standard of dancing on the day – definitely made the decision-making process VERY difficult! SUMMER CAMP The Summer dance camp info is now available on the website www.fyidanceclub.com. 10% off if booked before June 20th. WORKS ON THE SOUTH QUAY I’m sure we’re all well aware of the works taking place on the south quay. Unfortunately I have not been informed on the details of the works, but I am doing my best to find out. Parking will be restricted for up to 5 months (as I have just found out) so please allow for these extra delays. There is also talk of having a contra-flow or one-way-system put in place!!! I am advising all students to remain inside the building until they are collected, and encouraging as many students as possible to walk from school/home where possible. THE SHOWCASE The countdown is on! Just 4 weeks remain until the end-of-year showcase! Just a reminder, the showcase will take place on the evenings of the 29th & 30th May 2010 in Fatima Hall, Dominican convent School, Wicklow Town. Students will be notified next week which day they will be performing on. Please be prepared to give up a full day for dress rehearsals on the day of the show. Tickets will be available at the door at price €8 for adults and €5 for students/OAPs. I am hoping to start the show at 6.30pm (doors open 6pm)to accommodate our younger students. Each show should last approximately 90 minutes which includes a short interval. Students and family members are welcome to watch both shows as the content will differ between the shows. The show will also be recorded and DVDs will be available to order on the night and will need to be paid for upfront. In past years we have been charged €20 per DVD, though I am shopping around for a better deal. COSTUMES Costume fittings will take place the week of the 10th May so I urge each student to attend (all) classes to insure they are fully prepared for the show. Here’s hoping this will be the best show yet!! Each student will receive a note that week stating which costume items they will need to bring themselves on the night. Make sure all items are named and in a bag, which should also be named. Oh, and keep practising those winning smiles!!!! VOCAL COACH & ADULT DANCERCISE Thanks to Lisa Shane for all her work with the Musical Theatre class. Sounding good so far!! Dancercise classes will continue to run throughout the summer holidays. Keep an eye on the web for new days added! |
