Ember Parents
Welcome, Ember Parents, to your Program Parent Page!
✨ It’s just one month until Ember’s showtime! ✨
Your support as parents makes all the difference. Please help your dancer by arriving on time, encouraging at-home practice, and reminding them it is their responsibility to review rehearsal footage if they miss a rehearsal.
Below you’ll find our Fall Show Guide, including reminders on what dancers should bring. You’ll also see instructions for our staple Ember show hairstyle. Please take time to practice with your dancer, or team up with another dancer and parent for support.

Joseph Postcards
We need your help, parents! Each dancer will receive 10 postcards to help promote the show. Because Ember is one of our smaller productions, your support in filling the audience truly makes a difference for these dancers.
We would love for each dancer to intentionally share their postcards and invite friends and family to come experience Joseph!
