Why We Love… School Concerts!
Here at Little Devils Circus we love school concerts.
We know what goes into making a concert fun, fantastic and memorable (for all the right reasons!). They are a big deal for the students, teachers and parents, and involve a lot of preparation, dedication, and hard work.
Whether you are putting on a concert for a few year-levels, doing a full school showcasing of skills, or a large scale performance, here are some of aspects that will need attention:
Venue and seating:
- How large is your audience going to be?
- Does it have enough green rooms (or areas to store the stars)?
- How easy is it to get the students from waiting areas to the stage?
Lights
- Does your show venue have a great lighting rig?
- Does it have a lighting desk?
- Do you need a lighting technician?
- Do you have a lighting plan for each scene?
Music
- What genres/styles are you going to use?
- Do you have a sound system?
- What will the music be played on? Do you have a backup device?
Costumes
- How many students are you putting in costume?
- What sizes do you need and where are you getting them?
Blocking
- How are the classes involved moving around backstage?
- Where is everyone standing for their performance?
Choreography
- How are the students moving on, off and around the stage?
- Have you booked a dress rehearsal, so that students can practice with lights and music, in the space?
These are just a few of the features that will need to be right to make a concert a success. If this sounds like a lot of work, it is! But it is definitely worth it when you see the final product and all those happy smiling faces. (Parents, teachers and students!)
