[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Not paid. You also have to sign a contract before the audition that your child will attend all rehearsals and performances. This is how some families ended up bound to 7-8 weekends of 12 hours of rehearsals every weeks, plus 20+ shows. No pay, and just a small discount on tickets. It was way too much, and many families will not participate this year.[/quote] Is that a change from before? What was the commitment before?[/quote] The commitment used to less - about ten shows or so - until a year or two ago. As students have started leaving, more students have been double or even triple-cast. Last year the show ran for an extra week beyond the holidays in order to raise more revenue, though it probably didn't work, as many shows in the early weeks were pretty sparsely attended. They're running the extra week again this year. Fewer students auditioning + more shows = greater time commitment (though they don't tell you this before)[/quote]
