Ticket Sales
Tickets for Broadway Babies and SofR go on sale at Kick only on Friday May 9th at 7:30am.
Families with past due accounts will not be able to purchase tickets until their account is up to date. Tickets are $20 each
and seats are pre assigned. One ticket is good for both shows (Act I Broadway Babies and Act II SofR). Performers do not
require a ticket, however if you would like your child to sit with you to watch the other show, a ticket is required to reserve
that seat. A limited amount of tickets will be available at Count Basie on the day of the show.
Day of show tickets are $25 each. Kids 2 and under must sit in the balcony so they do not disturb the audience.
Tickets are available at Kick M-F 8 to 10:30am, and 3 to
6pm (no sales during dress rehearsal) Last minute sales are available Saturday May 31 from 8 to 9am at Kick.
Photos - New!!
We have decided have two photo days at Kick. This is also another opportunity
to have a dress rehearsal and check costumes, make sure everyone knows how to do their hair, has tights shoes, etc... This
additional rehearsal will also assist in our rehearsal at Count Basie running very smoothly. Finally, a separate photo day
allows us to ensure wonderful photos!! Photos are scheduled for May 27 and 28. The schedule was included in your child's
costume bag and will also be posted here soon! If your child cannot attend at their scheduled time, they may come at any
other time for an individual photo.

Hair
and Makeup Instructions for all dancers!
All dancers need to wear
their hair in a left part bun for photos, dress rehearsal and for the show. Bangs must be pulled back. Remember to part
hair on the left before making the ponytail. Hairnets make Buns easy!! Especially for short hair!
Bun Instructions 1. Pull the hair back into a ponytail (the dancers left part!) in the centre of the back of
the head, use water/gel to secure any stray hairs if needed. Smooth out any bumps with a brush or comb, then
secure with an elastic band.
2. If
the hair is particularly thin, teasing, or back combing the pony tail can add volume to the bun.
3. Twist the ponytail until it is like a long rope, plaiting
is also good for long thick hair. Start to coil the rope around the base of the ponytail, pinning along the
way. French pins (the ones that look like V’s) are better at holding the bun than bobby pins. When
inserting pins don’t poke them straight in, poke them through the hair outward, then flip them to poke back into the
base of the bun. This will ensure the pins don’t fall out.
4. Place the hairnet over the coiled bun. Secure in place with French
pins.
5. Spray with hair spray
to prevent loose strays getting out of place.
