Arabesque Dance Supplies

I called the first time to get their hours of operation and to my delight, the recording said that they are open until 6 on thursdays. I figured I would stop by after work around 3:30pm. When I got there, the store was closed. I was there by 3:15. Apparently, the owner, Mike, closes when he feels like it if it's not busy. I doubt I'll try again.... I'll find somewhere else to shop for theatrical makeup. HIGHLY DISAPPOINTED!

Arabesque Costume Supplies is a deceiving name for this store. I have been here many times, and never for a costume. We come here for ballet slippers, pointe shoes to be exact. My daughter started dancing on pointe about three years ago. For her very first pair of shoes, we came her and got a proper fitting done. She has danced many hours on those and subsequent pairs of shoes bought her, and still has never gotten so much as a blister. The shop keeper was very pleasant, and educated us with out being preachy. He thoroughly explained all we needed to know about buying, wearing and caring for point shoes. Sure, he has a ton of great costumes to buy and to rent, but thats not what keeps us coming back.
