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. Please do this by Sunday 1 November
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. If you live in Surrey you can contact the Child Employment Team in the Education Welfare Service on 01483 517838 If you live in Hampshire you can contact the Child Employment Office on 01962 876300

commitment
Authorised photo CDs of both teams will be available to order after the production from:
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 opportunities to develop during rehearsals.
the missed rehearsal rule If you miss a rehearsal you will lose your role. However, we understand that occasionally there are last minute situations that mean there is no other option. If this happens you must contact us as soon as possible. If you miss a rehearsal without having spoken with us in advance you will lose your role. We can occasionally, at our discretion, allow you to miss a rehearsal. However, once a rehearsal is missed, a second rehearsal missed for any reason will mean a lost role. There are no exceptions to this.
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.

Please make sure that you are not late.
Lost property is kept for one week after the play. After this, it is donated to charity.
On arrival each day parents must accompany children to the stage door outside the theatre and remain with them until a Chaperone has signed them in. We will not sign in children unless accompanied by an adult. After the performance 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 will issue parking tickets. In the past, we have had complaints and visits from the police about parents waiting in their cars, blocking the road and causing congestion in the one way system. Cars also cause 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 the rule does not apply to them. This rule applies to everyone without exception.

Children should bring a light lunch/tea with them for their Dress Rehearsal on Tuesday 15 December. You may bring a bottle of water and a small snack for the interval.
