Note For All Production Participants:

We welcome you to Court House Players and hope, if you are selected, you enjoy your part in this production. As an all-volunteer, family-oriented, community theater group, we at CHP believe that being willing to help out when there’s a need is what theater is all about, so we expect all participants in a production to serve in various capacities, as needed. Actors may be asked to help build or paint sets, provide parts of their costume or some of their props, or distribute posters to advertise the show. A backstage worker might find themself dragged on-stage to be an extra body, or maybe even a principal character.
Everyone involved with a show is expected to help strike the set after the final performance. In addition to being appreciated by the set builders and other technicians, it’s a great way to bring closure to what we hope will be an important and rewarding experience for you. 
Finally, all participants in a show are required to join CHP for the low annual membership rates of $10 for students, $15 for individual adults, and $25 for families.  If this constitutes a hardship, please speak to the director or producer. 
Volunteer hours can be used to offset future membership renewals. Additionally, any cast, crew or other volunteer aged 18 and older will be required to submit information for a background check in order to ensure the safety of our participants, especially children.

Please sign below to indicate that you have read this notice.  

Typing your name (and your child's name, if applicable) below acknowledges that you (both) have read and agree to the above.
