Q: What is the proper attire for a jazz dance class?

A: Some folks choose to go all out and come to class in full costume. Others opt for functionality and wear tights and leg warmers and a headband. Most show up up in a ratty t-shirt and gym shirts.

But no matter what outfit you choose, the one thing you can't wear is blackface.

I'm going to have to ask you to leave. Or at least wash your face.

I'm sorry, your deposit is non-refundable. You'll have to find some other way to pay for your burnt cork.
