Costumes are a very exciting part of all concerts! They really help bring the entire show together and students feel so special when up on stage in their costumes. All costumes for our end of year IPAC concert for our recreational students are purchased by each student and will be theirs to keep forever after the concert.

• 1 x concert pack
All costume & concert pack fees will be invoiced out during September and will be roughly $80 - $95 a costume.
The only other required items for the concert will be:
• Dance shoes – Black Tap shoes, Black Jazz shoes, Ballet Shoes & White Hip Hop sneakers

(these are mostly new routines we have begun working on. Some select routines from this years troupe season will also be chosen to be performed at the IPAC concert. More details on those routines will be sent out closer to the concert)
We will have 1 x costume per routine. Some of our current troupe costumes will be reused for the new routines then all other costumes will either be purchased or hired depending on the costume/routine.
All costume & concert pack fees will be invoiced out during September.
A detailed list of everything required including costumes will be posted to each troupe groups individual page so everyone will know what is required.

All students will be allocated a backstage group and helper to assist them on the day. All backstage helpers have working with children checks and many are teachers & or parents themselves. They are amazing with the students and allow you to sit back and enjoy the show!!
If at anytime throughout the show your child needs you, our backstage helpers will message you via the phone number provided on your portal.

We are very excited to be having another photo day this year to allow all our students to get professional photos, both individual and with their group, in their concert costumes. All students will take a group photo and an individual photo per costume they have for the concert and then parents have the option for which they would like to purchase at a later date. (All students will receive 1 x group photo with their concert pack). A link and password will be posted to our group facebook page to view and purchase your child's photos.
Our photographer will also be at our concerts to take photos during the concert performance to capture all those precious on stage moments. These will also be available for purchase via a link after the concert.
To ensure the photo day can run smoothly and everyone gets amazing photos taken we will need to follow a strict timetable. This allows enough time per age group to get their photos done. Please see the below timetable and more information. No photos will be taken outside of this schedule.
