No, I don't wear tights - too hot,hot, hot and not in good way!
And, I'd worry about "spray on pantihose" getting on fabric of costume.
Last year in April in Dallas, Lucy of Cairo wore footless jazz tights and body stocking underneath her yellow silk and black beledi dress for her cane performance. I was impressed - what with the long sleeves and long performance, she had to be toasty warm in all those close fitting layers of costuming. But whatever makes a dancer feel comfortable is fine, I just couldn't do it.
So, my solution is most of my costumes skirts do not have slits much above the kneee. Any that have high slits I either wear another lightweight skirt or semi-sheer harem pants - still cooler than tights, but that's me.
