9) Itinerary for Sunday
2:30 - 3:00 pm
Dancers arrive and enter the waiting area (amphitheater behind the stage).
Family and friends line up at the entrance, to validate their tickets. (Online tickets are fine, no prints needed).
Once tickets are validated, they can take seat inside the Auditorium. Seats are not numbered, they are on first come first serve basis (good excuse to come on time ;)
3:00 - 3:30 pm
Our Volunteers take Dancer's attendance and bring them groupwise, for the group photo.
After the photo, Dancers go back to the designated 'Dancer Waiting Area'. Dancers will not be able to sit with their family members. They will be backstage for the whole of the show, we're organizing a projection screen for them to be able to watch the whole show.
