DREAM PLAYERS PRODUCTIONS' CONFLICT POLICY
We strongly recommend that you plan your extended family vacation after the show is over. It is very difficult to produce a quality show if we have numerous cast members missing a lot of rehearsals due to summer vacations. The staff does not have time to re-teach blocking and dances that they have missed. Part of Dream Players Productions commitment to you is to provide a positive learning experience and this is difficult to accomplish if attendance is poor. Every cast member is important and there is a hole when they are missing. Please read our conflict policy and look at the dates we have posted in order to make a well-informed decision before participating in one of our summer productions.
Rehearsal times will vary from one role to another as rehearsals are scheduled around scenes. Therefore, some participants will rehearse more often than other participants. Once you receive your audition form --you are asked to indicate if you have regular rehearsal conflicts during the week (after-school/camp) Saturday Mornings; Sunday Evenings
Weekday rehearsals are typically between the hours of 4:50p.m – 8:00p.m.; Saturday’s between the hours of 10:00a.m.-2:00p.m.; Sunday’s between the hours of 3:00p.m.-8:00p.m.
ALL PUBLISHED REHEARSAL TIMES AND DATES ARE SUBJECT TO CHANGE.
Rehearsals will begin: The week of April 18, 2010
ALL PARTICIPANTS are required to attend dress rehearsal every night of performance week. These rehearsals are vital for everyone in the company – please do not have your child audition if they are unable to attend.
We anticipate rehearsals running well into the evening the week of the show.
