FHS Dramatic Arts Club Policies – Cast and Tech Crew

 

All policies of the FRHSD and FHS are strictly enforced.

Please refer to the Freehold High School Student/Parent handbook for details regarding these policies.

 

Attendance Policy

1. Students must be present for the entirety of any tech session, rehearsal or performance listed on the schedule to be included in the scene work or tech work for that day.  Please be aware that each rehearsal/tech session is character/job specific, and it is the student’s responsibility to know which rehearsal/tech sessions to attend.  Also, the Director/Tech Director may, at any point during the production process add additional rehearsal/tech sessions when necessary.

 

2. An absence will only be excused for the following reasons:  illness, injury, death in the family, etc., and per Director/Tech Director discretion.

 

3. If you are going to be absent from, tardy to, or leaving early from a session, notification is required.  The student must submit to the Director/Tech Director a parent signed “Absence Excuse Form” 48-hours prior to the absence. DO NOT ASK THAT DAY. DO NOT ASK DURING REHEARSAL. In the event of an emergency, the form must be completed within 48-hours of the absence.

  • Without notification, the student will automatically be considered “unexcused” for their absence or tardiness. 
  • Three (3) unexcused absences will result in dismissal from the production.
  • Leaving early is considered an unexcused absence, and the student will be docked time. Leaving early unexcused, three (3) times will result in dismissal.
  • Tardiness is considered an unexcused absence, and the student will be docked time. Unexcused Tardiness, three (3) times, will result in dismissal.
  • Please note: you must notify the Student Assistant Director/Student Assistant Tech Director if you must leave rehearsal or a tech crew session for any amount of time (using the rest room, etc). Failure to do so will result in an “unexcused” absence, especially if you were needed on stage. Please keep these trips short.

 

4. Attendance will be taken at the beginning of each session. In addition, each DAC member will be assigned an ITS Officer for signing out of each session. Failure to sign out with this ITS officer will result in an unexcused absence for that entire session.

 

5. All rehearsal/tech session calendar information for the Drama Club and Tech Crew can be found on the Drama Club bulletin board in the cold hallway AND on the DAC website. Please check regularly for changes/additions to the schedules and listen for any special homeroom/dismissal announcements.

 

6. All participants (Cast & Crew) are required to attend ALL rehearsals and Tech Crew assignments during Tech Week, as well as all required performances. Please consult your schedule for these dates and keep this stipulation in mind before you accept an acting part/tech job. Any session missed during Tech Week will result in dismissal. [Tech Week is defined as all sessions beginning the Saturday prior to the first performance.]

 

General Rules and Rehearsal Procedures

1. Refer to above attendance policies.

2. All Actors must bring their scripts and a pencil to every rehearsal.  Do not share scripts.

9. All Actors and Tech Crew must be ready to work by the designated time.  If you are not ready, you are tardy.

10. All student belongings should be left in the seats on House Left.

11. No one is to leave until the Director/Tech Director has dismissed the group.

 

Snacks

1. To eliminate “vending machine runs” and missing rehearsal time it is recommended that DAC members bring their own snack for afterschool.

2. As another alternative to the vending machines the DAC will have water, chips, and “baked goods” available for purchase. The ITS Treasurer will head a committee to sell these snacks during rehearsal/tech sessions. The ITS Treasurer will organize a schedule so that each DAC member is responsible for supplying these “baked goods” twice per show.

 

Performances

  1. Actors and Tech Crew must arrive by “call” time for Tech Week rehearsals and performances.  No exception.
  2. Do not wear valuable jewelry.
  3. Actors will be given time to get into hair, makeup, and costumes, and to check props.
  4. Tech Crew (Running Crew, Lighting Crew, Sound/Video Crew, Costumers/Dressers) must wear comfortable ALL BLACK pants & shirts (no graphics) and shoes.  House Crew (Ushers/Greeters) should dress appropriately to represent the DAC as professional to the public.
  5. All cell phones should be shut OFF and in your bag.  They WILL interfere with the sound.
  6. Before the show and during intermission, please stay in the designated cast rooms until the Director/Tech Director gives the “go ahead” to return to the stage.  Do not “hang out” in the hallways. No “visiting” with the audience.
  7. After every performance, you must check microphones and costumes, and reset all set elements and props before you are allowed to leave.
  8. After the final performance, there will be a prop and costume check in.  No one will be allowed to leave until everything you were issued is accounted for.   

Costumes, Hair and Makeup

Actors:

  1. Once a costume is issued, it becomes your responsibility.  If something happens to it—a seam rips, you spill water on it, etc—please notify the Director as soon as possible. 
  2. Please practice good personal hygiene, as these costumes will not be washed until after the run of the show.
  3. If something is damaged beyond normal wear or general repair, you may be held financially responsible for repair or replacement. 
  4. There must be one layer of clothing between you and your costume. 
  • For gentlemen: an undershirt and appropriate undergarments. 
  • For women: a nude body suit or tank-top and appropriate stockings/tights. 
  1. The Director may ask you to supply some elements to add to your costume.  Please give the Director advanced notice if you will not be able to locate these elements.  All items are required by the first dress rehearsal.
  2. Please hang up your costume neatly after every performance.  If you need extra hangers, ask the Director.  If you fail to hang up your costume neatly, you will be required to re-iron it before you are allowed on stage for the performance.
  3. All students must bring in their own footwear, according to the suggestion of the Director.  Please avoid purchasing traditional “character shoes”, unless specified.
  4. Students will be responsible for their own hair.  The Director will suggest a style that you should attempt to re-create.  It is your responsibility to “test” it on your own hair before the Hair and Makeup test day. 
  • For ladies, please provide your own appropriately colored bobby-pins and hair pins, hair spray (aerosol cans work the best for theatre looks), and hair brushes/combs.  You may also need hair-nets, gel, rollers, curlers, fake extensions, etc, depending on style needs. 
  • For gentlemen, please bring your hair gel or hair spray and a brush or comb.
  1. Actors will be responsible for their own makeup.  The Director will suggest a look that you should attempt to re-create.  It is your responsibility to perform a “make up test” on yourself before the Hair and Makeup test day. 
  • For ladies:  sturdy make up base, cover-up, eye makeup, eye liner, mascara, eye brow pencil,  blush, lipstick, fake eyelashes, etc.   Please see the Director for suggestions on brands.
  • For gentlemen:  sturdy make up base, cover-up, eye liner, blush, eye brow pencil, chap stick, etc.
  • Stage makeup is darker and more exaggerated then everyday makeup due to the brightness of the stage lights which washes everyone out.

 

Tech Crew Costumers/Dressers are responsible for assisting the designated Actor(s) to meet their costume requirements especially items 6, 8, & 9 and during costume changes between scenes.
