<p>D has an audition for Spelling Bee and it said to come “dressed to move.” She is planning to wear a black print casual dress over a robin’s-egg-blue Tshirt, black leggings and flats-- possibly red patent for some “color.” Her hair will be in two French braids because she will be going straight from the audition to perform in a show where she is wigged and has to have her hair braided in order to get the wig on. (She has TONS of hair.) She looks very young for her age anyway, and this outfit is very youthful looking, but also polished. It is my favorite one she wears. I don’t think there is a lot of choreography in Spelling Bee so all-out dancewear would not be necessary, although she will take her dance shoes along, just in case. Does this sound appropriate?</p>
<p>Dressed to move means they want you be able to demonstrate you can dance reasonably well - or at least you have both a sense of your body and a sense of rhythm. In addition to what she has planned, I’d suggest bringing, along with the dance shoes, a dance shirt that might be easily tossed over those tights in the event they want her to do a bit more. Be prepared!</p>
<p>Sorry< I meant to type “dance skirt”, not “dance Shirt”. Good Liuck!</p>
