‭ ny individual who participates in a theater production at Edgars Creek Secondary‬

A
‭College must adhere to the terms set forth in this contract. Any cast member who‬
‭does not adhere to each numbered term set forth is subject to dismissal from the‬
‭production.‬

‭1. Any student auditioning is expected to be truthful and honest on their audition form, particularly‬
‭ ith regards to whether or not they will accept any role. If a student is cast in a role they indicated‬
w
‭they WOULD accept, and then chooses not to take that role for any reason, that student is not eligible‬
‭to audition for the next Production.‬

‭ . All conflicts must be stated on the audition form and initial cast information sheet. Any conflict not‬
2
‭stated in advance will not be considered excused. Cast members are permitted to miss two (2)‬
‭scheduled rehearsals, whether due to illness or important appointments. When a cast member‬
‭exceeds their limit of absences, they will be dismissed from the cast. If the limit of absences is‬
‭exceeded during the last two weeks of rehearsal, the cast member will not be permitted to participate‬
‭in the next Edgars Creek Secondary College (ECSC) production. Seniors who fall victim to this‬
‭situation during the production will not be eligible for Drama Awards (hosting, award nominations).‬
‭The directors reserve the right to judge special cases—extended illness, death in the family, or other‬
‭extenuating circumstances.‬

‭ . Cast members must be present for all scheduled rehearsals. Rehearsal schedules are made‬
3
‭available at the first cast meeting. Starting and ending times are noted for each scheduled‬
‭rehearsal. It is expected that all cast members arrive on time and stay for the entire rehearsal.‬

‭ . In order to attend any rehearsal or weekday performance, a cast member must attend no less than‬
4
‭a half day of school (3 periods) on the given rehearsal or performance day.‬

‭ . There is a payment of $80AUD to participate in the production, however cast members are‬
5
‭expected to provide some personal items. This could include shoes, undergarments, makeup items‬
‭contacting their faces, and all or part of your costume.‬

‭ .Each cast member must follow all requirements of the Code of Conduct laid out in the Edgars Creek‬
6
‭Secondary College rules and Department of Education Guidelines. You are responsible for‬
f‭amiliarizing yourself with these. Participation in an ECSC production is an extra-curricular activity.‬‭At‬
‭no time does the play/musical take priority over your grades‬‭. All production participants MUST‬
‭MAINTAIN GOOD GRADES AND ATTENDANCE throughout the duration of rehearsals and‬
‭performance. Grade contracts will be issued to students who have multiple below expectations or‬
‭should a teacher/department/coordinator determine this. Failure to maintain a positive result, will‬
‭result in an actor/production member losing their role (per district policy). Furthermore, your grades in‬
‭your classes DO matter! A low grade in a music, acting or art class reflects poorly on your work ethic‬
‭and could prevent you from participating in future productions.‬

‭ . Since participation in a school production is a privilege, not a right, you are expected to conduct‬
7
‭yourself in a respectful and kind manner. Bullying, negative talk, rumour-spreading and the like will‬
‭not be tolerated. Your conduct in and out of school is expected to be of the highest calibre. You are‬
‭expected to be cooperative and respectful with your peers and the adults with whom you work. You‬
‭are expected to give 100% of your talents and energy at every rehearsal so we can all reach our‬
‭desired goal of the best production of which we are capable.‬

‭ . Students cast in lead roles will be given additional one to one coaching by members of the‬
8
‭Production Team. These lessons are compulsory, will occur once per week, appear on a students‬
‭compass and will last for no more than 25 minutes. Students are expected to catch up on any missed‬
‭class work. Every effort will be made to avoid lessons clashing with CAT and SACs.‬

‭9. Phones are not permitted during rehearsals, due to Government regulations.‬

‭ 0. Students will be required to complete homework assignments or rehearse autonomously, when‬

1
‭not actively rehearsing with a director or team leader.‬

‭ 1. Each cast member must be willing to do whatever is necessary for the success of the production.‬
1
‭This includes remaining in good health, avoiding dangerous activities, getting good rest…etc.‬

‭12. The directors reserve the right to dismiss anyone from the cast for reasons of insubordination,‬
l‭ack of cooperation with peers or adults, and any disrespect he/she/they may show to anyone involved‬
‭in the production.‬
