For those with young children, there is a sound proof room at the back of the theatre that can be utilised as needed while still being able to view the show.

PERFORMER DROP OFF - SIGN IN AND OUT

PLEASE DROP OFF PERFORMERS AT THE STAGE DOOR

This is located at the back of the building.  Please follow the signs.

Parents will be required to sign students in and out.  We thank you for your patience.  Our staff will then walk students to their dressing rooms.

Please note: It is VERY IMPORTANT students arrive on time at the very latest.  Late students mean a late start, or worse yet, may not be able to perform if their group is already ready to go on stage.  We do not have the ability to run late children to their dressing rooms to get changed just before the show.

​

WHAT TO WEAR TO CONCERT:

Students must arrive in their regular clothes with the following underneath:

Females - tan leotard and (if required) tights

Males - black singlet and black underwear

This is strictly part of our child protection policy to ensure students backstage are always clothed while changing into their costumes.

WHAT TO BRING TO CONCERT:

Please bring a bag with ALL ITEMS named.

• Tights (if your class requires this)

• Dance Shoes (if in a dance class)

• Jumper

• Water-bottle

• Back up bobby pins and hair ties etc if required

​

FOOD AT CONCERT 

We ask all performers to please come well prepared with plenty of food and water. Please ensure all food is clearly named.  Children WILL NOT BE ALLOWED TO SHARE FOOD UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES.

We have multiple students with food allergies and as such we strictly prohibit any foods containing nuts/seeds, chocolate, eggs and please no fizzy or sticky drinks. Any food found containing these ingredients will be taken by staff to ensure the safety of all performers. 

If you have concerns about your child eating during this time please feel free to call Jenny on 0422 221 461 no later than the week before concert. 

We thank you in advance for your understanding and cooperation.

​

ASTHMA PUFFERS, EPI PENS AND OTHER MEDICATION

IMPORTANT - If your child has an allergy or anaphylaxis we ask that an action plan, epipen and letter from your Doctor is supplied (the same information as is required by schools).  Please see us to discuss this. If there is an occurrence where any Confident Kids or Inspire Academy staff member deems it necessary, an ambulance will be called on behalf of the student and parent. This will be at the cost of the student’s parent.  Parents will also be contacted as soon as practically possible and brought backstage.  

If your child requires an asthma puffer or epi-pen, please provide this information in writing (including an action plan) prior to concert and let MICHELLE know on the day where your child's puffer or epi-pen is stored.

​

Not other medication will be allowed backstage.
