Dress Rehearsal
Date: Saturday, May 10th, 2025
Time: The time that your dancer will be required to arrive will depend on the dress rehearsal schedule. Each dance is scheduled a time to rehearse on stage based on the recital show order. Dancers are required to arrive 15 minutes before they're scheduled to be on stage. Depending on how many dances your student is in, they may need to check out between stage times. Please note, we do our best to stay on schedule but please be patient if we do get off.
Supervision: No student 12 or younger may be left unattended during dress rehearsal.

Recital
Date: Sunday, May 11th 2025
Time: There are two shows performed on recital day. Typically one show begins late morning (Show A) and the other late afternoon (Show B). Our Preschool/Kindergarten and 1st/2nd Grade classes perform in only one show which can be found in their class description on the parent portal. Students in our dance companies, acro and all classes ages 3rd Grade and up will be in both shows.
Supervision: Dancers of all ages will be supervised by PMDI staff during the entire show. If they are checked out prior to the end of the show, they will not be allowed to check back in for the rest of the show and will miss their opportunity to take a bow at the end with their class. Dancers must be checked out between shows as PMDI does not provide supervision between them.
Tickets: All attendees must have a ticket including babies and small children in accordance to LPS regulations and fire code. Tickets go on sale at least two weeks prior. All ticket sales are online on a first come, first serve basis. Tickets must be available on your phone or printed out to be scanned upon entrance into the auditorium. PMDI utilizes a third party ticket company. Any issues must be addressed directly to TutuTix.
DVD Orders: A link to purchase DVDs or a digital copy of the performance will be emailed to all enrolled families shortly after recital weekend.
