                                                          DANCE GALLERY 2026 RECITAL FINALE

​

                                ALL FINALE REHEASRSALS ARE HELD AT THE DANCE STUDIO

                       ​​

ABOUT: The “Finale” is the last dance number in the Recital and our way of saying farewell to the audience and celebrating all our accomplishments.

Participation in the “Finale” is mandatory for all dancers. On the day of the Recital, all dancers are required to stay for the entire performance and perform in the Finale. We pride ourselves on being a close-knit dance school where all the dancers feel valued and appreciated equally. Your dedication and commitment to the full show helps us to continue that messaging. We thank you in advance for your commitment to the performance and the finale

 

THEME: Songs That We Love To Dance To

 

COSTUME: Dancers will need a plain, black, short sleeve t-shirt, black dance shorts, black tights and any kind of black dance shoes. As we assign dancers to different songs, they may need additional items or accessories. These will be things you will probably already have at home. If not, we will provide them at a minimum cost to you.

 

REHEARSALS: We have scheduled 11 rehearsals plus a mandatory rehearsal on June 11. Rehearsals are at various times to accommodate everyone’s busy schedules. You should try to attend at least 5 rehearsals plus the mandatory rehearsal on Thursday, June 11. You can come to as many rehearsals as you want to but must attend a minimum of 5. A rehearsal schedule is provided below and is spread out over 3 weeks.

 

There is also an “Irish Dance Finale”. A rehearsal schedule is provided below. All Irish Dance Finale Rehearsals either precede or follow a

Recital Finale rehearsal. Additional information and instructions will be provided in a separate notice for all Irish dancers.
