SHOW DAY Dressing Rooms

With many skaters in multiple groups and some quick changes with the schedule, please ensure that you are back to the curtain in adequate time.
For those New-To-STARSkate, we do ask that no parents are in the dressing rooms to avoid congestion and other children changing. However, they are permitted to come in to help with a quick change if needed but the parent does have to be of the same sex. Males are not permitted in female dressing rooms, and females are not permitted in male dressing rooms at any time. Should you need a space, we do have full access to the referee dressing rooms as well (DR 4 & 7 are available to all).
Also, STARSkaters will be watching the show from the stands with all their peers if they’re not on the ice or changing. They typically sit to the right side just beside the curtain, so they can see the show and be ready to go on at a moment’s notice. This is something that they all look forward to and enjoy the most – celebrating, enjoying the show with their skating friends.
REMINDERS
· ALL Skaters should be in their dressing room area no later than 1:30PM
· No Flash Photography
· Group 2 (Wicked/Oz) – Don’t forget to wear a long shirt tucked in or bodysuit.
· Group 3 (Hairspray) – We have 2-way tape to keep those vampire collars down

FINAL PICK UP

All costume pick up will be located near the lower-level entrance of the CBS Arena and reflect one of the 2 practices for that group.
We will not have costumes from other groups on hand, only those costumes that are scheduled for that time in particular.
All costumes not claimed at their scheduled pick up times will be available at the FINAL PICK UP on Friday April 26th
Costumes are Costumes – they will not all fit perfectly, sometimes we will need to adjust them.
Some costumes do not match the ‘size’ selected but the ‘size measurements’ do reflect that.
If you have any costume questions or concerns, please email us as costume pick up can get hectic and information lost or forgotten.
We are ALL Volunteers doing the best we can, please be patient & kind!
