All participants have a responsibility to themselves and one another to maintain the highest standards of conduct at all times. Because we care about the safety of each participant, the following guidelines have been developed:

1. The theatre will be used only during approved hours of operation.

2. All participants are to remain at the site or other pre-approved space with an adult present at all times, unless previously authorized to leave. Caution will be exercised with respect to the neighborhood. Stay with at least two other people when outside.

3. All participants must have a signed permission, medical, consent, and risk form on file in order to attend.

4. Arrival on time by 8:45 A.M. and full participation is expected from both participants and adults. Departure on time daily as the building is closed and alarmed by 4:00 P.M. (except the last Friday when students stay through the end of the evening show.)

5. Possession or use of alcohol or drugs is strictly prohibited and will result in an automatic trip home at the expense of the participant as well as disciplinary action.

6. No inappropriate sexual acts, thank you.

7. Respect for company members and all those with whom we may come into contact is essential both in action and regard to personal property.

8. All property of OATC and site will be cared for and respected. Members are responsible for keeping the property clean and in good condition. Any damage of property is the responsibility of the participant and cost for repairs will be charged to the individual(s) involved.

I understand the guidelines that have been set for Opening Act Theatre Company and agree to abide by the rules. I understand that any violation of these guidelines will warrant a review by the adults and may result in a loss of privileges or being asked to leave permanently without reimbursement.
