TICKET ORDERS

Tickets are available to order for $16.00 each. Dancers received a ticket ordering envelope in class the week of March 13th. Orders must be placed in person at WDC using the ticket ordering envelope.

Deadline to order for the first drawing for seating is Friday, April 14th by 7:00 p.m.
All family and friends will need a ticket to watch the show. You are guaranteed to be able to purchase up to six tickets per family (not per dancer) per show. If you would like to purchase more than six tickets, please include the additional number of tickets you would like with your order and we will do our best to complete your request.
Small children/infants that will be sitting on a parent’s lap do not require a ticket.
Seating location is decided on a drawing basis. This eliminates the need for anyone to stand in a long line to purchase tickets.
