UIL OAP Audition Form
One Act Play 2015 Contract
One Act Play is our competition show and requires an incredible amount of focus,
dedication, and time on the part of the actors, technicians, and the director. Since this is our
contest show, I expect total dedication from each member of the company. You must not only be
dedicated to the show, but also maintain passing grades and appropriate behavior and school
attendance. Failing grades and discipline referrals are grounds for dismissal from the One Act
Company. The “No pass No play” UIL rule applies for One Act Play Contest and students who are
failing a subject will be replaced in the show. It is imperative that all students maintain passing grades
at ALL times!
As with every show, in order to cover the cost of scripts and show shirts, a $20.00 production fee
will be due by December 15
th
the first day of rehearsal.
During rehearsals I expect students to be focused on the show and only the show. No mp3 players,
phones, etc should be used during rehearsal time. No phones will be allowed in the auditorium
during rehearsals. You will only need your script, notebook paper and a pencil. We will have closed
rehearsals, so no guests will be allowed without prior permission, friends and siblings that are not in
the show may not stay unless special arrangements have been made in advance (not the day of).
Students must have their scripts and a pencil at every rehearsal. Remember, if you are not
contributing to the show, you are taking away from it.
Attendance is mandatory: we must have every child at every rehearsal! Excused absences will be
allowed for pre-approved events and emergences only! Excessive absences excused or not will be
grounds for dismissal, there aren’t many rehearsals when we return in January – if you miss too many
you will be replaced in the show. I can’t stress enough or ask that parents and students work
together to please fill out the conflict calendar carefully! Make sure ALL conflicts are listed on
the calendar!
Transportation: Every rehearsal will conclude at the same time unless otherwise stated. Please
don’t rely on your student to call or text to come pick them up. It will be the same time every time
unless I’ve e-mailed you differently.
*I’m possibly moving rehearsals from starting at 3:30 and having them start at 4pm – giving kids time
to do homework and eat before rehearsal starts. This would make the rehearsal time 4-6.
If you have any questions about this contract or anything during our rehearsal process, please feel
free to contact me at school 940-369-4262, or
[email protected]. I will also give my cell phone
to parents of cast members after the cast list is chosen.
