DETAILS
-This is an informal concert, students have different concert attire expectations than normal!
-CONCERT DRESS BREAKDOWN
TOP - students are expected to wear any maroon, grey, white, or black Spartan shirt. If students do not own one, they have inexpensive shirts available at NuCara pharmacy. In a pinch, students can simply wear a plain maroon, grey, white, or black shirt.
BOTTOM - students may wear jeans or khakis! I still recommend against leggings. I have heard too many horror stories from directors about students wearing thin leggings and the bright stage lights. Any color of jeans are acceptable and regular dress pants/chinos are okay too.
SHOES - students just need to wear close-toed shoes.
-Students will be sitting and watching the performance while they are not on stage. Concert Ettiquette is a part of their grade. Students are expected to be respectful audience members and stay for the duration of the concert.
