Concert Rules and Requirements

1. No talking on the risers for any reason.

           All others - 7:00

1. All choir members will check in with their Section Leaders, Vocal Tech will check in with Mrs. Kirk.
2. When students are not performing, they are expected to be seated in the audience, showing proper respect for the performers onstage.  As this is a formal occasion, no shout outs, catcalls or any other behavior which could distract the performers is tolerated.  Penalties will be assessed to those responsible, and they may forfeit their right to membership.  Flash photography is absolutely prohibited.  The flashes only serve to temporarily blind and distract performers.  Photos with flash look washed out and faded.  Pictures taken without flash turn out much better.
