Where – Dress Rehearsal is at Windsor High School.

Address – 1100 Main St, Windsor, CO 80550

Dancers should come in their costumes with hair and make-up done, and bring their dance shoes. Please enter through the school back activity doors, not the main entrance. If your dancer is in multiple dances they should arrive in their first scheduled dance’s costume, shoes, headpiece/hairpiece, and required hair. Dancers can use tubs, garment bags, laundry baskets, suitcases and zip lock baggies to organize their additional costumes and accessories, if they are in more than one dance. Please label all shoes, costumes, belongings and keep track of headpieces.

We CANNOT replace costumes, or costume pieces. The Dance Department is not liable and cannot guarantee locating/finding any lost or stolen items that go missing while performing at Dress rehearsal or Recital as per TDD policies.

Once inside, you will enter the auditorium where you will stay. NO FOOD OR DRINK IS ALLOWED IN THE AUDITORIUM. Dancers should locate the designated row for their class and wait there.

Dress Rehearsal is scheduled in blocks of dances not in show order. This allows for us to have a fluid and flexible schedule to meet the needs of various age groups and families. Dancers will be released by their teacher once they have practiced on stage.

If you are late your dancer may miss the rehearsal, as our goal is to STAY on schedule!

If you cannot make the dress rehearsal for any reason please let a director know ASAP! IT IS INCREDIBLY IMPORTANT FOR YOUR DANCER’S PREPARATION AND CLASS THAT YOU ATTEND REHEARSAL.

If you must get ahold of a director the day of rehearsal or recital, please reach out on the studio number via text or phone 970-230-3226, this number goes to both directors.

Great Job, Rep!

This past weekend, our dancers performed for an amazing crowd at Pelican Pointe and Seven Lakes Memory Care. They thoroughly enjoyed the performance.
