Plans For Pupils' June Recital Start Taking Shape In January By JO ALDWINCKLE Hundreds of yards of stiffened net, at least fifty dozen artificial flowers and a thousand yards of sequins are all part of the out- ward show that goes into a dance recital. This is the time of year when hundreds of little girls from three years old to sub-teens, and some little boys, don elaborate costumes to dance on a real stage. For them it is the highlight of a year of dancing lessons and practising over and over the same steps and turns, For the: teacher it is the cli- max of at least six months of planning and promise of a holi- day from the clamor of piping voices and possibly a chance to take a refresher course. Miss Lillian Mae Marsh whose pupils gave a successful dance recital last week says that she starts planning the June recital in January, : "About then I start making sketches for the costumes," she says, "and hunting for suitable materials. Nowadays the very small pupils wear stretchy leo- tards which last at least two seasons and can be changed very easily by adding frills of net or fur or flowers. "For national dances and for the bigger girls: the costumes have to be made and I have found the results are better when I have dressmakers work- ing on them, rather than expect- ing the mothers to make them for their daughters. This year Miss Marsh employ- ed eight dressmakers who pro-| duced over 75 costumes. Backstage she depends on mothers who volunteer and some of the senior students to marshall the groups and line them up ready for their en- trances. Directing hundreds of tiny tots in a high pitch of ex- citement takes limitless pa- tience and understanding com- bined with disciplige. special recordings. take part and there are a few like that, but most of them want to perform and the recital is an incentive for them to work their steps and routines and facing an audience is a test of confidence." Miss Marsh has her own spe- cial public address system with Apparently, the dance studio pianist. with a repertoire of classical ballet music is disappearing, piano and lall. Records are now made to teach by and for recital work. "This ends the problem of finding a pianist who can play syncopated music as well as bal- let music, generally it's one or the other, and also allows me to, extend my classes, early and late, when a pianist would not be readily available." The dance routines selected for the recital must be adapt- able, Miss Marsh has found. "You can arrange a sequence for six children and on the day of the show even after the dress rehearsal, a child will go down with measles or chicken pox so someone is left without a part- ner. Experience teaches you to anticipate these sudden changes." Miss Marsh planned also danced in it herself. Approximately two hundred pupils took part.
