guide school absence It is unlikely that your child will need to be absent from school for this production. However, if any of the performances would mean absence from school you will need to complete a School Absence Permission Form. You can download this from: www.themaninthemoon.co.uk/production We are now an approved Body of Persons, so it is no longer necessary to complete and other Licence Application. Please do this by Saturday 9 February shoes and socks All the cast will need either a pair of black jazz shoes or black character shoes (if playing a girl character). If you would like to hire these from us, you will need to pay a hire fee of £5 for the week of the show. There is a space on the Cast Member Check List to let us know what you would like to do. Please do this by Saturday 9 February contacting us From Friday afternoon until Monday morning, we do not pick up messages from the office. If you need to contact us about rehearsal, please call or text our mobiles: Paul’s Mobile: 07825 167317 or Sheila’s Mobile: 07825 167327 programme biographies Everyone needs to write a biography for the programme (max 40 words). It must be written in the first person and emailed to info@themaninthemoon.co.uk. We will confirm that we have received it. If it is too long or not written in the first person we will return it so that you can change it. Everyone needs to write a new biography. If you haven’t written one before, please ask us and we’ll be happy to help. There are some examples here: www.themaninthemoon.co.uk/biography. You can do this right away, but please remember to do this by Saturday 16 February at the latest chaperones We need one chaperone for every twelve children in the production. Chaperones play a vital part in looking after the cast during the performances. It is also an exciting opportunity to see what goes on backstage to put on the production. Without chaperones the performance is not allowed to go ahead. We have a small and dedicated group of volunteer chaperones and are always looking for more. If we are not able to find enough chaperones, we will have no other option than to use professional ones. This would increase the show fee by over £35. Being a chaperone is enjoyable and rewarding. It can take a little time to register, so if you are interested please contact your local authority as soon as possible. Please consider registering to do this. If you live in Surrey you can contact the Child Employment Team in the Education Welfare Service on 01483 517838 or if you live in Hampshire you can contact the Child Employment Office on 01962 876300 rehearsals You must wear your MIM hoodie and production T-shirt, comfortable loose fitting trousers (no skirts) and sensible flat shoes (loose fitting shoes like flip flops, Crocs, Ugg Boots or shoes with wheels are not suitable). You may also bring a bottle of water or juice and a small snack. scripts All cast members need a script. This will be loaned to you. You'll need to bring a script deposit cheque (no cash) for £5.00 to your first rehearsal. This will be cashed if your script is not returned in excellent condition to either Paul or Sheila, by the end of the final performance. You are responsible if it is lost or damaged. You may make essential markings in pencil, which must be erased before it is returned. You may not highlight your lines. Bring your deposit on Saturday 2 February Return your script by Saturday 6 April commitment All cast members are expected to give the production 100% commitment. Failure to learn lines on time, lack of concentration or disruptive behaviour will lead to a lost role. The show fee will not be refunded. Children would be given a formal warning first before their role was lost. This is to ensure that those who do work hard will have the best possible opportunity to develop during rehearsals. arrival and departure When arriving at rehearsal it is important to check that we are there. You may not leave your child unattended outside the rehearsal venue, as we accept no responsibility for them. Rehearsals start and finish promptly. Late arrival will be considered as a missed rehearsal. The missed rehearsal rule will then apply for all future rehearsals. late collection We appreciate that from time to time an emergency may prevent you from collecting your child on time. However, we reserve the right to make a late collection charge of £15 per child. the missed rehearsal rule In fairness to everyone, we take attendance at rehearsal very seriously. If you miss a rehearsal you will lose your role. However, we understand that occasionally there is long standing commitment or a last minute situation (such as illness) that means there is no other option than to miss a rehearsal. There are only nine Saturday rehearsals. We can at our discretion, allow you to miss a rehearsal. However, once a rehearsal is missed, a second rehearsal missed for any reason including illness, will mean a lost role. There is no exception to this. If a rehearsal is missed, we ask all parents to complete a Missed Rehearsal Form. videos and photographs You are not allowed to RECORD or PHOTOGRAPH the production. Due to copyright and child protection law we are not able to allow anyone to make an unauthorised recording of the production. Photography is not allowed at rehearsal or backstage. An authorised photo CD and DVD recording will be available after the production. tickets Each cast member is expected to sell a minimum of 10 tickets to their family and friends. You will be given a publicity pack (called Bums on Seats) and an accelerator offer with reduced ticket prices, to help you do this. Details of the accelerator offer are available here: www.themaninthemoon.co.uk/accelerator The accelerator offer allows you to make a considerable saving on the regular ticket price by booking in advance. It does not guarantee availability and we encourage everyone to book early. Alternatively you can book tickets at full price with the box office directly on 01483 444789 or online. If you experience any difficulty contacting the box office/booking tickets please do not hesitate to let us know. the week of the show contacting us From Friday 29 March to Monday 8 April, we will not pick up messages from the office.

We take no responsibility for children who are allowed to come to the theatre without an adult. After the performance please collect your child from the same place. You must confirm collection time each day when dropping off as it is liable to change. Parents must report to a Chaperone before collecting their children. Collection more than 10 minutes late, will incur a £15 charge per child. Children are not allowed to leave with adults other than a parent unless previously arranged. Our usual password system will operate if you would like your child collected by someone else. parking The road by the theatre is not suitable for drop-off and collection. Traffic Wardens regularly patrol and issue parking tickets. In the past, we have had complaints and visits from the police about parents waiting in their cars. Parked cars are also a safety risk to children walking to and from the theatre. Please park away from the building and walk your child to the stage door. DO NOT bring your car to the theatre! Please do not be one of the few parents who think that this rule does not apply to them. This rule applies to everyone without exception. food and drink Children should have eaten their main meal before arriving at the theatre for rehearsals and performances. Children can bring a light lunch/tea with them for their Dress Rehearsal on Tuesday 2 April. You may bring a bottle of water and a small snack for the interval. Sweets, chocolate, chewing gum, sugary or fizzy drinks are not allowed. valuable items Please do not bring valuable items to the theatre, as we accept no responsibility for them. Books, comics and cards are ideal in the dressing room. lost property Lost property is kept for one week after the play. medication You must leave any medicine that your child may need with a Chaperone. You will be asked to complete a Medicine Administration Consent Form. shoes If you are supplying your own shoes they must be CLEAN, NAMED and left at the theatre all week.
