Recital Information
Show Date: Saturday May 17th, 2025
Location: Strawberry Crest High School
Auditorium
4691 Gallagher Road Dover, FL 33527
(located just off I-4 and Exit 14 for McIntosh Rd.)
As we celebrate 22 YEARS of business in the Tampa Bay and Central Florida areas, you are invited to join us as we head out west on a trip to the "Golden State" of California!
Costume Distribution & Rehearsal: Most costumes have arrived and are currently being processed! Costumes & Recital T-Shirts are scheduled to be distributed the last week of April and first week of May and will be hand delivered to your child's school by their dance instructor. An email will also go out the week of delivery so you know when to expect a costume at your child's school. We will NOT be holding a dress rehearsal and all practices will take place at your child's school. Our teachers are working in class each week to prepare your child for their on-stage debut! Please try on your costume and hang it up in a SAFE PLACE until the show. The day of the show, we suggest female dancers wear some make-up to avoid appearing washed out on stage. Hair can be styled any way that is out of the face. Be sure to wear all included accessories, tights and hair pieces included with your costume!
Shoes: You are responsible for purchasing the correct shoe and color for your child to wear with their costume. Pink ballet shoes are required for preschool girls. Black ballet shoes or sneakers are required for all boys. Tan jazz shoes are required for elementary girls.
*Children's Academy, Primrose of South Tampa 2:20 Class, and Lakeland Montessori
--please have TAN JAZZ SHOES*

Please direct all photography orders & questions to Armstrong Images via email at matt@armstrongimages.com
Video: We are pleased to offer professional videography of our show again this year from Armstrong Images! Their videographer will capture the show in its entirety, so we ask that you PLEASE put your cameras away during the show and enjoy the performances. Your copy of the show was included in the video fee you paid when you registered your dancer for the recital! These videos will be emailed out a couple weeks after the show once editing is completed. They will be sent via email and you'll be able to download and share with whomever you like. They are a wonderful keepsake from this special day and are fun to use during the summer for your children to practice their favorite dances at home!
Flowers/Concessions:We are a one stop shop! Beautiful floral bouquets will be available for purchase if you'd like to surprise your little one with a bouquet after their performance. We will also have a concession stand with light snacks, candy and drinks that you can enjoy during the show. We will be accepting cash, Venmo and Credit/Debit cards.
Parent Helpers: We can't put on a quality show without the support of volunteers! We ask that at least TWO parents from each class volunteer to be a parent helper backstage with your child's class for the entire program. Parent helpers do NOT need to purchase a ticket and will be able to view your child's performance from the side of the stage. If you are interested in volunteering (and haven't already signed up), please email with your name, your child's name, the school your child attends, and a phone number. Being a parent helper is a fun and exciting experience that will create memories that will last a lifetime! An additional email will then be sent with details regarding your role as a parent helper very soon!
Please be on the lookout for future reminders regarding recital as we get closer to the show!
You can always reach out to us via email at info@webbydancetampa.com, or by calling 813-258-2063 with any questions or concerns. We are here to speak with you!
Happy Dancing!
