Tentative 2021-2023 Company Schedule

Listed below is the 2022-2023 tentative competition schedule, workshop dates and showcase dates. Please keep in mind that these are tentative dates. Listed below are FOUR Competitions and two workshops. We would like to have participated in five regional competitions, but unfortunately many competitions that we have attended in the past are having the events during the beginning or end of the April school vacation and also, we did have to take into consideration the Easter holiday. All companies (with the exception of Pre-Company) will participate in the four regional events.

Workshops

Monster of Hip Hop – Mandatory for ALL Hip Hop Company Members ONLY.
Dates: December 2nd – 4th 2022. Location: Mystic CT Marriott Hotel & Spa. The workshop offers an open class on Friday, but it is not mandatory to attend. If you would like to book a hotel and receive the discounted rate, visit Monsters of Hip Hop website and click on the Mystic CT location. You will see a place to book a room. The hotel does sell out fast, so if you are going to stay, we would suggest booking your rooms now. The cost is $325.00 and due on or before November 5th 2022. Payment must be cash or check only. Fundraising money can be applied.

Radix Dance Convention – January 6th – 8th 2023. Location: The Westin Copley Place, 10 Huntington Ave Boston Mass. Mandatory for Mini, Petites, Juniors, Teens, Seniors and Novice companies. The Prep Company will not attend. The convention levels are determined based on the dancers age as of January 1st 2023 to determine what level they will attend. Some company members will not be in the same room together and we cannot control that. The workshop is a two-day event, with the exception of dancers that are age 5-7 years of age, as of January 2st 2023. They will attend a one-day event. To book a room for the event, you must visit the Radix website and choose the Boston location to reserve a room. When we called last week, the rooms were already gone, as the hotel gave them less rooms, as there is another event being held near the hotel. The over flow hotel is the Boston Park Plaza Hotel. The rate is $159/night and can be booked through the link here, https://book.passkey.com/e/50386674. We would recommend booking as soon as possible as rooms are going quickly for this event. The cost for the workshop and teacher travel fee will be given out at a later date. We do know that many company members have credits from last season and they will be applied. The convention has increased their price this season, also the observation wristband has also increased for $50.00 to $55.00. The Rookie observation bands for ages 5-7 are $40.00 for the one day and must be purchased at the convention, not in advance. We have also increased our teacher travel fee from $20.00 to $25.00. Invoices will be given out in November, showing the new convention price, observation band cost. teacher travel fee and the credits from last season for company members it pertains to. Please let of know ASAP if you would like an observation band.

Showcase
We will have a Company Showcase this season. The date is Saturday, March 11th with a snow date of Sunday, March 12th 2023 at Fitchburg Stare Auditorium. We will have two shows. All Companies will participate, including the Prep-Company and Novice Company. More information will be given out at a later date.
