Drop Off - Pick Up Procedures



All dancers need to arrive by 5:00 pm for Dress Rehearsal - 1:00 pm for Recital!

Recital will be held at the Harrison Opera House located at 160 W Virginia Beach Blvd., Norfolk, Virginia 23510. This is a City of Norfolk establishment, so please anticipate a parking fee.
​
Please have your dancer arrive in their first costume, dressed and ready with hair & makeup complete.

Please have one parent/guardian drop your dancer off at the stage door on the left side of the Harrison Opera House. EOSOD Staff will be present to take your child, as well as any additional costumes. 

Act Two ONLY dancers may wait in the audience if they like, but must be dropped off backstage by the start of Competition Corner. 

Please do not send your dancer with any bags or belongings other than garment bags. 

We ask that you please label every single item with your dancer's name.

Any guest, including the parent dropping off, must enter through the main entrance in the front of the building to be seated. Auditorium doors will open at 5 pm on Dress Rehearsal and 1 pm on Recital.

We will hold your child from drop-off until they have finished their last dance. This means if your dancer is in more than one dance, you do not need to assist in costume changes. 

Once your dancer has completed their final dance, please head backstage immediately to pick them up from the pickup area (ROOM C). **Exit from the back of the theater where you entered, turn right to go backstage, signs and ushers will be present. 

Only ONE parent/guardian will be allowed backstage for pickup & drop off. Each family will receive a red wristband and will be required to have the wristband with them when picking up their dancer.

We will not release a dancer without this wristband. 

Once your dancer has finished dancing and has been picked up, you may re-enter the theater to watch the remainder of the show, or you are free to leave. 

Please note that costumes may not be readily available to pick up, and we ask that you have patience as staff will be bringing them to the pick-up area (ROOM C) periodically.
