A: All cast members MUST be active members of Steamboat Dance Theatre. You can register online at www.steamboatdancetheatre.org. While costumes are covered by sponsorships, as a dancer you may be required to purchase your shoes, tights, undergarments, and other costume pieces of a more personal nature. It is also standard practice for dancers, as a group, to present a gift to their choreographer(s) for leading them to the stage. Suggested donations range between $10-$20 per piece.
