About this template
A recital permission slip gathers the handful of parent authorizations a studio needs to put a child on stage safely. The **permission** itself covers participation including backstage and rehearsal time, with the practical reminder that the dancer must arrive by **call time** and be picked up promptly. The **photo/video release** should be **opt-in** for a child — many families are fine with it, but some are not, so make it a clear yes/no and honor "no." The **emergency medical** authorization (allergies/conditions plus consent to obtain care if the parent can't be reached) is the safety essential, and the **authorized pickup** line — only named adults, photo ID — prevents the most serious incident a studio can have. Keep the **call time, venue, and routines** on the slip so it doubles as the family's reminder. Two notes: a parent must sign for a minor, and this slip is **not a full liability waiver** — a parent's waiver of a child's own claims is limited in many states and never covers gross negligence, so it's worded modestly; pair it with the studio's registration and any waiver reviewed by counsel, and keep family information confidential.
