KTY End of Year Show FAQs

Does my child need to be present for all times listed?

Students are required to perform in both concerts (if relevant) on their concert day. If your child cannot perform in the show/s, or cannot attend rehearsals please let us know ASAP.            

What does my child need to wear to the dress rehearsal/show?            

End of Year Showcase costumes are made up of pieces from our costume wardrobe. However some classes will be asked to provide basic items such as black leggings or t-shirts. Costume Information Sheets outlining everything each student needs will be sent out 2 weeks before the dress rehearsal day. The costumes themselves will be handed out in class the week before the dress rehearsal day. If you have any costume questions, ask your teachers.  

What about hair and makeup?                            

Hair and make up requirements and recommendations will be outlined as part of each classes’ Costume Info Sheet.                            

What does my child do when they arrive at The Space?

All students should enter via The Space Main Entrance, and sign in at Reception on Level 1. They will then be directed where to go to get ready for orientation.    

Does my child need to bring their own food?

Yes! All students should bring a healthy lunch and plenty of snacks (not to share). Also, it is important that all students have a refillable water bottle.                            

Does my child need to stay for the whole show?

Yes, in addition to their class routines, all students come back onstage at the end for a grand finale! Since the groups are split into 3 separate shows they should be no longer than 1-1.5 hours per show.

Can I wait backstage with my child?

Unfortunately parents are not able to wait backstage due to safety and security reasons, but be assured the kids will be supervised backstage 100% of the time.

Do we get to keep the costumes after the concert?                            

Unfortunately not, we reuse the costumes for various other performances during the year.            

Where can I purchase tickets?

Tickets will be available to be purchased online on Friday November 10th via The Space website.  

Are there still classes after the concert?                            

Yes! There are still 2 weeks of classes after the concert before we break for the December/January School Holidays. This is a perfect time for your child to try new classes!  

Have a question that isn't listed?                    

We want to ensure that the weekend runs as smoothly as possible so please do get in touch with The Space on 9529 3949 or kty@thespace.com.au with any other questions you may have!
