Topic: Children Actors Legality! Posted: 7/28/11 at 1:04pm |
Hello Everyone,
I am directing a production of A Christmas Carol and will be casting a few children and teens under 18. I wanted to know how you handle children in the cast. *Do you have the parents fill out consent forms? *Do you require parents with kids under 18 to stay at rehearsals with the kids? *Are there any legal issues I am not aware of? Thank you so much for your input! Erika Hose Legacy Theater Company |

We do have parents fill out the consent forms. We also insist that one of the parent's be back stage with the kids to keep them active. No legal issues I am aware of, but we are considering a policy to check state sex offender websites for all auditioners and crew. Good Luck!
