backstage Parent Volunteer sign-up

We need parent volunteers for the recital to work backstage in the dressing rooms. Parent volunteers will stay with their assigned class and keep students entertained throughout the entire recital. We will need to have two adults per class. Parent volunteer requests are taken on a first come-first serve basis as we cannot overfill these positions due to space in the dressing room/backstage area. You will be able to go out to watch your child’s class perform or watch them from backstage if you prefer. You will receive a free recital t-shirt in an adult size of your choice for helping backstage! If you would like to volunteer, please sign up on the following online sign-up sheet.

t-shirt sign-up

Student Tshirts (included in Recital & Performance Fees)
Each student participating in our Spring Dance & Tumbling Recitals will receive a T-shirt that was included in the price of your Recital and/or Performance Fee. These make a great keepsake from the recital each year. The front will have a design and the back has a cast list of every student who is performing in the recital. We do a new shirt each year and students can wear them over and over. Many students choose to get t-shirts signed by friends and family during rehearsals and recitals as well. Be sure to fill out the online form so that we have your child’s correct size for their Recital T-shirt!
Parent/Family Member Tshirts (additional fee)
If you would like to order a Parent Recital Tshirt or a shirt for someone else in your family to support your dancer(s), you may also fill out your name and tshirt size on the online form that we will also be emailing out. This is a separate online form so the link is different than the one above. If you fill out the Parent/Family Member tshirt form, Arts Academy will receive a notification that you want to order a shirt. If we receive this notification, we will then add a tshirt charge to your account. Parent/Family Member shirts will be $20 each.
