April 16, 17 and 18, 2010		 Information for Soloists
It is important that solo performances fit in with the theme and general appearance of the Show. For this reason, a soloist may not independently select music, costume color or style.

  • Soloists will work with the Artistic Director in the selection of music.
  • Soloists will work with the costume committee in the selection of a costume.
  • The costume committee will contact soloists after the cast list is posted to discuss costume options.
  • Soloists must have their costumes approved by the costume committee no later that January 1, 2010.
  • Any soloist who does not have their costume for picture day, will not be pictured in the show program and picture will not be posted at the rink. Please plan accordingly!
All soloists are required to attend a special lighting session with the Technical Director. This session is typically scheduled on a Saturday morning 4 weeks prior to the show on the South Rink. Soloists are to wear their solo costume(s) to this session.

Soloists will not receive any monetary funds for performing in the RFSC Ice Show. Solo performances are for the greater benefit of the RFSC and the audience. United States Figure Skating has rules that allow payment for performances, but it is not RFSC policy to pay club members to perform in our annual ice show. Prior to the show, the soloist is not allowed to perform the solo, wear the show costume or use the solo program at any engagement, except for show-related practice or performance.

The soloist is required to skate the minimum required units as outlined in the Show Casting section above. If the skater is injured and unable to skate the required number of units per week, a doctor’s note must be submitted to the Show Director.
