Annual Concert
We had the 2023 Concert on Saturday 9th December.
All students will participate in the Concert.
The Concert is a showcase for all the work the students have put into their classes during the year. Our story ballet in 2023 was "The Intrepid Six visit Sanctuary Island". A fun story about an island haven for native parrots!
In the past our story ballets have included 'The Snow Maiden', A Midsummer Night’s Dream’, ‘Hansel & Gretel', The Faraway tree’, ‘The Adventures of Madeline’, ‘The Willow Pattern Story’, ‘Pandora’s Box’ and revivals of 'Aladdin' and 'Ocean Dream' to mention just a few. In 2011 our Concert was a special 20th Anniversary celebration. The 2019 Concert story ballet was 'The Diamond Castle' which was a ballet loosely based on the Disney story. In the 2021 mini concert, the mini story was 'Peter and the Wolf'.
Costumes
Rosatutu Studios has a magnificent costume wardrobe. Costumes are hired to all students for the Concert. Hire charges are kept to a minimum at $15 - $20 per costume with a reduction in price if students are in 3 or more items. The costumes remain the property of Rosatutu Studios are not to be taken from the Concert venue after the Concert. To see samples of some of our costumes from the costume wardrobe, please see the gallery page. Our Gallery pages are currently being updated!
Concert DVD
A Video is made of the Concert and it is made available to all students on the provision of a USB to download a copy.
Photo Day
After the Concert, usually towards the end of the January holidays, we have a Photo afternoon where the children can have their photos taken in their costumes for the Concert. Costs of the photos are kept to a minimum. The Photos are taken by the profressional photography studio Vision House Creative. Photos are generally really for purchase and download at the beginning of the following year after the holidays.
Choreographic Festival
Sometimes we hold a Choreographic Festival for our students. It might be held at any time during the year. This is a valuable experience and conducted in a supportive and encouraging enviroment.
Performance groups
We have a Performance Groups for Classical Ballet. Members of Performance Group who also take jazz or contemporary classes often perform in these styles as well. Membership of the Performance groups is by selection and invitation. There are weekly rehearsal classes and additional rehearsals are scheduled prior to major events. The criteria for membership of Performance Groups can be seen on the document under this link Performance Groups criteria
The Groups perform at several events during the year.
The Groups also participate in local Eisteddfods and some individuals within the groups are also invited to do Solo Eisteddfod work.
As well as Eisteddfods, we give small Concerts for residents at local nursing and retirement homes such as Buckland House and Uniting Care Home. These dance presentations are all regular items in the calendar.
Open Days
Parents and Grandparents and relatives are invited to watch all classes at the end of Term 2. These days are designed to help children with their performance skills in a supportive atmosphere. It also helps those students preparing for exams to work to an ‘audience’.
