All routines must have a minimum of 5 dancers and all dancers must be older than 12 years of age by the performance date. Routines cannot exceed 5 minutes.
All participating studios must be available to tech their piece on Saturday, June 6th and perform on Sunday, June 7th. Professional lighting will be provided. Additional routine details & requirements will be announced at a later date.
The Workshop
Dancers are invited to take classes on Saturday, June 6th when they are not needed to tech their routine. Workshop classes will be taught by company dancers or choreographers of the professional dance companies who are performing in the showcase. Anyone can take the workshop classes (even if they are not performing in the showcase), but sign ups will be first offered to participating dancers.
