“RE-View” Variety Show

May 6, 2022

We are so excited about this year’s “RE-View” Variety Show! There is A LOT of detailed information here - please be sure to read it all before submitting your entrance form!

Riverview is responsible for maintaining high standards of behavior and ensuring that all acts are K-5 appropriate and culturally sensitive and inclusive. We are responsible for ensuring a safe and healthy environment for students and staff at all times. Please do not hesitate to reach out to Mrs. Turpin or Ms. Kellogg with any questions!

The show will be on Friday, May 6th in the afternoon! A time will be set once we know how many acts we have! Parents/Guardians of performers are welcome to attend in person!

Each entry MUST include a video of the student(s) performing their act. This video will serve as a screener to ensure all acts are appropriate for the show. There will NOT be in-person screenings this year! All entrance forms must be complete by April 18th.
