1. pink ballet shoes in good shape (clean, no rips)
2. pink tights (no seams)
3. nude under leotard - no white leo's please
4. makeup, hair net (see below) -- buy yours early in case the stores are out
of stock just before Thanksgiving.
Rest of costume is provided:

There is a costume fee of $25 per
child (regardless of how many parts the child dances) that covers purchase,
repair, and cleaning of the costumes. Make check payable to Hanneke Lohse.
Dressing for the performance:
Hair is worn in a bun at the crown of
the head, with a hair net (NOT a decorated bun cover) that matches your
hair color.
Makeup: lipstick brand is wet n wild, color #522A, available at Long's and
Rite Aid. Use false eyelashes or mascara; for example, Ardell
fashion lashes, 101 demi, black are available at Long's. Eye makeup should
be in neutral shades. Use just a little blush, since the dance is so fast
that cheeks will be red anyway. No fingernail polish, and no glitter since
some girls get rashes from it.
NO JEWELRY. Remove watches, rings, bracelets,
necklaces, and earrings.
Arrive one and one-half hours before the show starts. We will call in replacements for
anyone not present one hour before showtime.
If you are sick on the day of the
performance, contact Karen as soon as possible.
