RECITAL SUPPLIES
Hair & Tights Requirements:
View the Recital Spreadsheet to see the specific hair style and style/color of tights the dance teacher has assigned for each costume. A limited number of tights can be purchased at TheStudio.
Nude Leotards:
Dancers who have multiple dances within the same show (for example a ballet, tap, and jazz costume change) are required to wear a nude leotard. Nude leotards are flesh colored leotards worn underneath tights and dance costumes. We require them for the dancers’ and staff members’ comfort and safety during quick costume changes.
