We are very conscious of costume prices and it is our main aim to ensure that Parents do not spend huge amounts of money on costume. We ask that all children wera their LJ T-shirt and black bottoms (leggings or Joggers) and black trainers, plimsoles of Jazz shoes. These are staple items which are worn in class each week anyway so all children should already have these. Costumes provided by Lemon Jelly are hired out to you for a fee of £10-£15 for all Items that you will borrow. This is to cover costs of cleaning and repairing. We are a small operation that does not have a huge budget or warehouse for costumes. Many items are bought specifically and/or hired for the purpose of this show. The average cost to us is £12 per costume (most classes are being provided with 2) Your hire fee is a contribution to the overall cost of costuming everyone.

No, we will not be filming the show due to additional costs and licensing BUT we do have a professional photographer to capture moments of the day for you to keep as a memory. We used this photographer last year in Leicester and his work is very good. Have a look at his website

No photography or videography is permitted. Aside from the fact that we cannot photograph or film other children under any circumstances, we feel it is so important to immerse yourself in this experience with your child. It prompted us to write a blog post on it after watching a documentary on Oasis (the band) in the 90's. You can read our blog here on collective effervescence. We do have a professional photographer who will capture some great moments during the rehearsals. We have used them before and we think they're great. Have a look at their work
