What releases do performers typically sign?

Performance, recording, and likeness releases covering show capture and promotion. Collecting these at audition or registration beats chasing signatures opening night.

How do guest lists stay manageable?

Capped submission forms per show with cutoff dates beat handwritten door lists. Door staff check exports instead of deciphering handwriting in darkness.

Should auditions collect union details?

Yes where applicable: union status, eligibility, and conflict disclosures streamline casting compliance for productions working under collective agreements.
