A Holiday Mashup

Parking Info for Rehearsal and Performance Days

There is plenty of parking in the front of the high school. The theater is accessed easily by entering the front doors and following the corridor straight ahead. *DO NOT park in the West Wing Parking lot as doors may not be unlocked that side of building.

Tech Rehearsal Info (Dec 8)

• Please arrive in costume with a wrap (a robe or an oversize t-shirt work well) over your costume to protect it.
• For tech rehearsal, please see “Performer Call Times” page (arranged by class title) for the exact time your performer should arrive at the High School.
• Upon arrival at Truckee High School for Friday rehearsal, proceed to theater and wait in audience seats until your group is called. You will find other dancers from your class in seats and you may gather with your group, as well. Your instructor will find your group and advise you/ give further instruction if needed.
• Upon completion of stage practice, students are free to leave.

Performance Day Family Information

Families are not expected to purchase tickets to both shows. Seating is limited so please attend the show that suits your family best. There will be plenty of adult volunteers chaperoning all children in the gym during and between both shows. Examples of what parents can do to navigate the afternoon/evening:

• Drop your dancer(s) off at the high school gym prior to matinee where chaperones will help get your child settled with their group.
• If you are attending the matinee, you may stay with your child until showtime if you wish. Upon completion of matinee, you may rejoin your dancer in the gym to assist them with a snack or purchase the light meal.
• At that point you are free to leave the high school and return for pick up after the evening show, as we will monitor all children in the gym for the duration of the afternoon/early evening. NO SMALL CHILDREN will be allowed to leave the gym and will only be allowed to use the restroom with a chaperone walking them.
• If you are attending the evening show, and prefer to stay with your child and/or volunteer as a chaperone during the matinee we welcome you! Sign up sheets are at the front desk at studio.
• If you are attending the matinee and wish to volunteer as a chaperone during the evening show we welcome you! Sign up sheets are at the front desk at studio.
