Shrek Jr. Commitment Letter

MoCo’s Theatre Program has three policies that affect a student’s ability to perform in Shrek.

1. Your account needs to be in good standing, which requires all outstanding balances to be

paid in full or on a payment plan.

2. Attendance policy. With the short amount of time to prepare for Shrek, you are only allowed to miss 2 classes before you are taken out of the performance.

- Once you have missed more classes than allowed you will be taken out of the show. Class only meets once a week, so you can see how missing any classes would greatly impact your learning and make it difficult on you, your classmates and the teacher.

3. All rehearsals and performances in the theatre are Mandatory. Rehearsals in the theatre are part of the learning process; allowing students to learn their spacing on stage, entrances and exits, getting to and from stage and learning about theatre protocol for their safety. Theatre rehearsals are as important as the performances. If you miss a rehearsal in the theatre you will be taken out of the show. Check your schedules for conflicts!

Everyone needs to be in class every week as we are all in this together and want to make our shows at MoCo the best show possible. When you miss class you affect yourself, classmates, teachers and the entire performance. This is not just about the performances; it is about the process we go through to get there and what we learn week to week in class.
