10th Anniversary Big Show! :IMPORTANT INFORMATION!

Due to my lovely lungs needing a much needed break....they are resting now at SGMC through the weekend...our 10th Anniversary BIG SHOW has been postponed to Fri, June 10th at VHS. We will include everyone from Broadway Camp in our show. Postponing this show is very upsetting because I know how hard the children have worked towards the big stage. They will just be that much more prepared in June! Love you all!

Recap of our Rehearsal Meeting!! The BIG SHOW is this SATURDAY!

AM&T  HAPPY 10th YEAR!!!!

Hello AM&T! CONGRATULATIONS AM&T!! Your Rehearsal today (Sunday, March 27th) for our 10th Anniversary Show was a SUCCESS!   REHEARSAL SCHEDULE for this WEEK: MONDAY 5:30pm -7:00pm "MEN in BLACK" group   TUESDAY 5:30-7:00pm "BLACK CATS" group (Savannah, Chloe, Binks, Brianna W, Lilly, Delainey and Chesley) WEDNESDAY 5:30-7:00pm "COTTON EYED JOE" and "GREASE".  THURSDAY 5:30pm-7:00pm "SMOOTH CRIMINAL", "VOGUE", and "ANGELS" FRIDAY 6:00pm-8:00pm "DRESS REHEARSAL" for EVERYONE at CENTER STAGE DANCE in LAKE PARK. This is the ONLY rehearsal this week at Center Stage. All other days will be at the Studio.    SATURDAY: 10:30am-12pm: FINAL RUN THROUGH of ENTIRE SHOW (Valdosta High School's Performing Arts Center)  SATURDAY: 5:00pm: ALL models and actors are to report to Valdosta High School's Performing Arts Center to get dressed. Doors will open to the public at 6:15pm. The show begins at 7:00pm.   I think I have told most everyone this information, but just in case...here it is in print. Please re-read as some things have been added or edited. BLACK CATS group: Black leotard (short sleeve), black full tights (over feet), and I have the black tails. If the girls will feel more comfortable in black sophie shorts, or a black dance skirt, let me know. I think they have all of this at Target.  GREASE group: If your child has a poodle skirt, white shirt, and saddle oxfords, please wear it. If not, please wear a white short sleeve shirt or white button down oxford with jeans rolled up and everyone's hair in a pony tail. Saddle Oxfords can be made by getting white tennis shoes from Payless or Royal Boutique and painting the sides black. Please also wear white socks.   The boys: Parker, Drey, Landon, Payton, and Micajah will need to wear black pants, black shirt, black shoes and white socks.  (same as Men in Black).  VOGUE group: Same as December: Black leggings, Sparkly silver or white tank, black blazer, and black boots/shoes.  COTTON EYED JOE group: If your child does not have a Country/Western Wear that they would like to wear, your child will model an outfit from Boots Too (including the boots). Please bring your clothes to Wednesday class this week!  SMOOTH CRIMINAL: Black pants, white socks, black shoes (converse are completely fine), white button up long sleeve shirt, and suspenders. They have suspenders at Royal Boutique on the $1.00 table as soon as you walk inside. The black pants will be rolled up to show the white socks.   WHEN DOVES CRY: Same as December: White or silver sparkle tank, white leggings, silver or clear heels, wings and tutus. We have the wings and the tutus.   MEN in BLACK: Black pants (long leggings or jeans are fine), black boots or black shoes. Converse are fine. Black short or long sleeve plain tshirts, and black blazer/sports coat. If you do not have a black blazer/sports coat, wear a black jacket or a black long sleeve plain tshirt.   THRILLER (Finale): Everyone will wear their last outfit of their last performance. Several of the older models and actors are in two or three, so whatever you have on in the last performance, you will wear in Thriller. INTRODUCTIONS and MODELING the RUNWAY: Wear an outfit of choice. Anything goes. Anything is fine. We will not approve outfits. It needs to be the model's decision. Everyone understands we are classy, not trashy :) PARENT/CHILD RUNWAY: You may coordinate your outfits, or you can wear whatever you feel best in. Some will have themes. Some will not. Anything goes as this is a fun event. We want our parents on stage! This will happen after Introductions and Modeling the Runway, so it may be easier to keep the child in the same outfit....just a tip :)  QUESTIONS? Let me know please! Sometimes when you ask other parents, your child is not in the same group, and you may not receive the correct information.  _______________________________________ Our Theme is   AM&T... Celebrating 10 Years Under the Big Top! No stress allowed. This is a FUN EVENT and we want HAPPY SMILING PEOPLE!   Thanks!! Ms. Amanda, Amber, Holly, Jarrett, and The Angels!

When we first opened on April 1st...yes, I began teaching classes on April's Fools Day....I never thought we would see the day where we are celebrating the 10th Year. I have been teaching modeling, acting, pageantry and personal development since my 15th Birthday but having a business of our own has been so special.

Six hundred minutes,

How do you measure, measure a year?

In daylights, in sunsets, in midnights

In cups of coffee

INTERESTED in  

MODELING & ACTING in NYC  

this SUMMER?  

MEETING this SUNDAY, FEB. 27th at 3pm

AM&T Every week, I watch "Toddlers & Tiaras" and the common quote from the mothers is "they hope their child's experiences in pageants will help them break into the modeling and acting business".

We can do more than give you "hope" to break into the business. We actually help your child work in NYC this Summer! 

If you are interested in learning more, please come to the Information Meeting at AM&T (1813 Iola Drive Valdosta, GA) this Sunday, February 27th at 3pm.

If you have ANY questions, please let me know!

Many thanks!
