Prop Load in at the Tempe Center for the Arts will be on Sunday, May 18th at 9:00am. DO NOT ENTER THE VENUE PRIOR TO 9AM. GIVE TIME FOR BACKSTAGE PEOPLE TO SET UP. Please have someone on your team coordinate this. It would also be smart to ask your dresser to help you take things into the theater so you have time for rehearsal. Enter TCA through the Stage Door which is located on the west side of the theater.

All props will have to fit through the loading doors.  No props will be able to be assembled at the venue, unless it is simple putting together.  

Stage Dimensions:
                                   Full Stage- 40' wide by 45' deep. 
                            Half Stage- 40' wide by 22' deep

Each contestant will get 10 minutes of stage time, with the sound and visual operators, starting promptly at 9:10am. So please be there on time!

If you have dancers, tickets for them will be $10 plus the theater fee. These tickets will only be available for purchase in the Balcony 2. Select the seats in Balcony 2 and "add" Dancers option. The password code for those is DANCER.  Tickets can be purchased on March 29, 2025.
Please purchase those tickets here: https://purchase.tempecenterforthearts.com/EventAvailability?EventId=19001 

Dancers will be allowed backstage in the morning for rehearsal. All dancers and prop people should enter through the Stage Door. The only names that will be provided is what you put on your application.

ALL dancers should have a physical ticket to the pageant. Tempe Center is being very strict with the amount of people they are allowing backstage. Therefore, no dancers will be allowed backstage after 3pm.

All dancers should enter through the main entrance with their ticket. Their set up area will be the Lakeside Room. During rehearsal we will show you how your dancers will get backstage once the pageant begins. Dancers will be allowed backstage THREE (3) entertainers/talents prior to your talent.  After your talent, dancers are able to go back to the Lakeside Room to change and go back out into the theater.  If dancers are backstage early or lingering backstage after, admin points will be deducted.

You are allowed one dresser badge per contestant.
