I understand that I must advise the director or audition coordinator if my child has any medical conditions, special needs, or occasional behavioral issues. (Examples include: frequent migraines, diabetes, dyslexia, anxiety, challenges with attention, sensory processing issues, need for a service dog, etc.) This information will be held in confidence. Note - such conditions or needs to not influence casting if the director feels that your child is ready to be in a show based on their auditions. Knowing about special issues simply allows YPT to understand your child and work with them to perform their best.

I understand that a parent/other adult is required to perform 25 volunteer hours per performer (25 hours for 1 performer; 35 for 2 performers; 40 for 3 performers), which are assigned to pre-production (sets, costumes, props, etc.) and production needs (stage crew, dressing room, box office, etc.). In general there are 5 hours pre-production and 20 hours of production hours. Buy-outs are NOT an option. I will reach out in advance of auditions if this is a concern. I understand my child might not be able to participate in the production if my family cannot provide the required volunteer hours.

I understand there is a non-refundable $195 participation fee per cast member. (Fees are not assessed until a performer is cast)

I understand that at least one parent/other adult must participate in STRIKE with the performer, which follows the final performance on Sunday, October 5, 2025 at ~4:00 PM (dismantling sets, returning costumes, theater cleaning, etc.).

I will reach out to ypt@dmtc.org BEFORE auditions if it is a hardship for my family to commit to the financial or volunteer requirement as listed. Scholarships must be applied for in ADVANCE.
