Any type of pants,shirts, dresses, skirts will be suitable.

If at least 5 of the above people could have kimono that would be fantastic. Everyone should be dressed in all white or all black. Nothing too dressy or showy. Emma and August – no particular costume. They are at a Christmas party where they are hunting for a pickle in the Christmas Tree. Could be any type of festive dress or just everyday clothes. Megan, Felicia, Steven K., Sydney M., and Nathan all need to be dressed nicely, nothing too flashy. No jeans please. If your child or their class isn't specifically mentioned in regards to costume or specific props that they need, just dress nicely. Also, the props that are listed for each class are things that we will need to acquire for each song or scene. If you have access to any of these, whether or not your child is in that scene or song, please let me know if we can borrow them for our production.
