I (student) understand that every role in a production is important. If I am offered a role, I will accept it graciously and approach it with energy, professionalism, and a positive attitude. I understand that casting is a complex process in which every decision affects many others. My role is assigned as part of the overall needs of the production, and casting decisions are final.
We (student and parent) understand that all students cast in Puffs are members of the production. Participation in the GHSA One Act competition cast is a separate casting decision based on the needs of the competition production.
I (student) understand that roles, tracks, understudy assignments, and performance responsibilities may change during the rehearsal process if necessary for the success of the production.
I (student) understand that, if I am cast, it is my responsibility to attend every rehearsal for the scenes in which my character appears. I will arrive on time and prepared with my script, a pencil, and appropriate rehearsal clothing.
I (student) understand that it is my responsibility to learn my blocking, lines, music (if applicable), and assigned track(s) by the deadlines established by the director. I understand that this requires rehearsal and preparation outside of scheduled rehearsals.
I (student) will contribute to a positive rehearsal environment by treating fellow cast and crew members with respect. I will not criticize, compare, or publicly comment on casting decisions or another student's role or performance. Feedback is the responsibility of the director. This expectation applies both in person and in all digital communication, including social media.
I (student) understand that it is my responsibility to be attentive, cooperative, and respectful during rehearsals and performances. If my behavior repeatedly disrupts the rehearsal process, I understand that the directors will follow the behavior procedures established by JCHS and Fulton County Schools and may involve school administrators when appropriate. Continued misconduct may result in reassignment of my role or dismissal from the production, including forfeiture of any applicable production fees.
We (student and parent) have carefully reviewed the production calendar and understand the rehearsal and performance commitments for both the fall production and the GHSA One Act Competition. The conflicts submitted with this audition contract are complete and accurate. We understand that conflicts submitted after casting may not be accommodated. Unexcused absences may result in reassignment of a role or dismissal from the production, including forfeiture of any applicable production fees.
We (student and parent) understand that it is my responsibility (and my parent's responsibility) to regularly check email, the rehearsal calendar, and all official JCHS Theatre communication platforms for schedule updates and important information.
I (parent) understand that each family is expected to support the production by serving on at least one Parent Committee. If I am unable to fulfill this commitment, I understand that I may instead pay the "opt-out fee" of $150 to the JCHS Theatre Department to help cover production need costs.
We (parent and student) understand that students who accept a role in the production are responsible for the $200 production fee.
I (parent) understand that at least one parent or guardian is expected to attend the required Parent Meeting on Monday, August 17, at 6:30 p.m.
