Happy Thursday!

We are finishing our second week of Curtain Call… which means we are about halfway done! By the end of Week 3, Curtain Callers will have learned all the material for the upcoming performance! We are so thrilled to be back in the swing of Curtain Call and to be making music again!

Theme Days

We will be having theme days each Thursday this year. We encourage the kids to dress up, but to be sure to continue to wear proper footwear (sneakers to dance in), and keep accessories to a minimum as they can be distracting during classes. The theme days will be:

Next Thursday, 7/16 will be Show Shirt Day (if your child doesn’t have a show shirt, they can use a camp shirt, a past Curtain Call shirt, or any other event shirt).
The last Thursday, 7/23 will be Color Day (each student should wear the color of their group).

Ticket Reminder

We will be having our performances on Wednesday, July 22nd, and Thursday, July 23rd at 7:00 PM in the Lyons High School auditorium. We will be giving each student two (2) complimentary tickets. These tickets may be used on either night, and can be split up between nights. If you would like to receive more than two tickets, adult tickets can be purchased for $5, and student and senior citizen tickets for $3. Please turn in ticket payment in a clearly labeled envelope with the ticket form. Checks are made payable to Curtain Call.

Every student can receive 2 complimentary tickets to the performances. Complimentary tickets can only be obtained by filling out the online form, which you can access by clicking on the link here: Complimentary Ticket Form. You must fill out this ticket form to receive your complimentary tickets. These tickets can be split up between both performances or used for the same one. If you would like extra tickets, a paper paid ticket form was sent home last week. You must return your ticket form to receive your additional tickets. If you have not received a form yet, you can find a copy on our website or contact the office for an extra copy. Ticket forms must be returned by Monday, 7/20. No online/email requests for paid tickets will be accepted. Unsold tickets (if any) will be available at the door on the evenings of the performances. Both ticket forms can be found under Ticket Info on our website.

Tickets will be distributed to the students to bring home Tuesday 7/21.

Peppermint Days Performance

We are excited to announce that our Curtain Call students will be performing at Peppermint Days next Saturday, July 18th! The performance will begin at 10:00 AM in the Village Square. We will meet at 9:30 AM in the parking lot to the left of the courthouse to get everyone organized and ready. The performance will last no more than 30 minutes.

What to wear:

Curtain Call shirt (if your child has one)
- OR a plain colored t-shirt in the color of their group
Comfortable shoes for dancing and moving (sneakers!)

Please make sure your child arrives on time so we can line up and prepare for a wonderful show. We’re so proud of the hard work your children have put into their songs and dances and can’t wait to share their talents with the community!

General Reminders:

Students should bring a labeled water bottle to Curtain Call. It’s the summer, and they are putting in so much effort to put this show together. It’s incredibly important to stay hydrated!
- Due to school policy, drinks other than water are not allowed in the auditorium and gym spaces we use every day. If a student arrives with another drink, they will be asked to finish it before entering the auditorium for the day. We appreciate your cooperation in making sure we are respecting and keeping the spaces we are using clean!
Students should be wearing sneakers to Curtain Call. Sandals, Crocs, and other shoes are not suitable for dancing.
Curtain Call starts at 8:30 each morning. We’ve had many students coming in at or a little after 8:30, so we just wanted to send a reminder to make sure they’re getting here on time! Perhaps, plan to arrive by 8:25!!!
