Technical Information
Sets:
What set pieces will your production require, if any? Large set pieces are discouraged for a festival setting. Some may be accommodated, however. Do these pieces require storage at the theater or can they be taken away after each performance? How much space would they require? Do you require anything to be affixed to a wall, curtain or ceiling? This is extremely discouraged in a festival setting. Some attachments may be accommodated, however, if they are simple and cause no potential damage.
Props:
What props will your production require? Do these prop pieces require storage at the theater or can they be taken away after each performance? If left at the theater, how much space would they require?
Costumes:
It is recommended that all productions take home all costumes at the end of each performance. Some storage may be accommodated, however. Would your production require costume storage? Please describe all storage needs, with details about size, if storage is requested.
Lights:
Generally The Brick provides a basic repertory lighting plot for all productions to share. This plot will include a warm wash, a cool wash and at least one ICue for single spotlight specials without gel. There will probably be some colored gel options. However, no changing of gels or focusing of instruments will take place during any festival and during most other productions. Please describe any lighting design elements your production would require which would not be covered under a basic festival repertory lighting plot.
Sound:
All sound cues should be placed on a readable CD for your Tech Booth Operator. If you wish to run cues off of a laptop computer or MP3 player (iPod, etc.), you may do so. However, you must provide the laptop computer (nothing larger) or MP3 player and one member of your company to operate it. Please describe your sound design.
Video:
The Brick owns a video projector and movie screen that are available to Festival participants and Co- Productions. Will your production require a video projector?
Does your production utilize nontraditional seating (i.e. seating on the stage)? Please describe:
Will your production be using stage blood, confetti, water or anything else that is spillable? Please describe:
How do you intend to clean said substance up in the changeover from your show to the next show?
Marketing:
Into what genre would you place your production (Drama, Comedy, Experimental, Multi- Media, Vaudeville, Dance/Movement, Musical, Puppetry, Other…) ?
What qualities or aspects of your production would be of particular interest to the press?
For what age group is your production appropriate?
Should we promote your production as a children’s show or child-appropriate?
How does your company intend to bring audiences in for your performances?
Is there anything else we should know about your show?
Exclusivity: *
The Brick Theater, Inc. asks that all productions play only at The Brick (and not at other New York City venues) one (1) month prior to the start of the festival or run and one (1) month after the close of the festival or run, unless alternative arrangements are made with The Brick (workshops excepted). It is fine to apply to other theaters or festivals with the same proposed production, but should you accept an invitation to perform at The Brick, please consider your acceptance as an agreement to said exclusivity. Please do not agree to perform at The Brick pending word of acceptance to another festival or theater at a later date. Other theaters and festivals may have similar exclusivity clauses that would require the withdrawal of your production from The Brick. Withdrawing from The Brick after the acceptance date costs The Brick time and money to reschedule and renders inaccurate all publicity materials developed up to that point. Do you agree to these terms?
Artist’s Fee/Production Costs: *
The compensation for co-productions is an artist's fee equal to 50% of that show's box office (i.e. 50% of its ticket sales), less any agreed-upon guarantee, which is paid approximately 4 weeks after the conclusion of the run. The Brick is not able to provide any up front production subsidy or commission, and each show is responsible for covering the show's production costs (including any travel and lodging arrangements). Each show must also comply with any visa requirements: While The Brick will provide any necessary letters confirming acceptance, we are unable to pay any visa fees or related legal expenses. Do you agree to these terms?
