That sounds like a unique form of torture. I’ve never been to any event of that kind that was as long. You’d need a meal break, several trips to the bathroom and maybe even a nap to get through it. And it seems insane to bring young children.
We were so blessed when dd was doing dance. They split their recital into two shows. One for a certain age and under and one for a certain age and older. So the younger kids didn't have to sit through such a long performance. Plus she would hire a few college students for the younger kids' recital. We delivered our kids to the dressing room and they stayed there. Their dance teacher would take them out to their performance and for the finale. We picked them up back stage after it was over. No bored little dancers! And they had a ball.
