Enrolled students who create a group of 10 to 25 can participate in Step Sing. Typically, Registered Student Organizations participate; however, a dorm floor or a random group of friends are also allowed and encouraged to compete! However, it is important to note that a student can only participate in one group performance.
The individual groups will have no more than 10:00 minutes to perform.
The groups are judged off of their Showmanship, Musical Quality, Creativity, Storyline, and Choreography. The performances are judged by at least five individuals that are selected prior to the show. The maximum score that can be given by a judge is 50 points for large group (10 pts per category).
The groups can use any song of their liking, but it must not have explicit content. The same rules apply for lyrics. Songs can only be used once per show and are awarded in the order of the show. Order of the show is randomly selected at the first Captains Meeting.
Groups are allowed to use props on stage, but there are several rules and regulations. Please see the Step Sing Rules and Regulations once they are posted to see the limitations on the props.
Historically, UPC provides the groups with a 25 minute allotted time slot the week of the show for a full out dress rehearsal. However, this year Norton is permitting 40 minute long dress rehearsals for each group this academic year. Dress Rehearsal will occur in the order of show and will happen between 4pm - 10pm on Tuesday, February 3rd and Wednesday, February 4th.
The groups will have the option of 25 lighting cues. This does not include on and off. The groups will be able to meet with the Assistant Technical Director of Norton and can practice their cues during rehearsal.
