INCLINE STAR FOLLIES STUDENT CASTING POLICY (acceptance of policy is mandatory):

Students will be cast in the Star Follies in accordance with the following criteria:

  1. Approximately 12-16 students will be chosen from each of the following levels: 5th grade, middle school, & all high school grades combined.

  2. The Star Follies casting committee, in with input from the students’ teachers and/or principals, will select students. Selected cast members will be in good academic standing, have positive classroom behavior, excellent school citizenship, and a total commitment to attend all rehearsals and shows. Musical talent or ability is not a criterion.

  3. At all levels, casting is done by a random draw, although a balance of boys and girls is desired and therefore will be taken into consideration when drawing names (i.e. we will attempt to achieve a balance of at least 2-3 boys per every 4-5 girls selected).  In addition, at the middle school level, those students that have already participated in prior productions will only be considered after those students that have not yet had the opportunity. Middle school students that were in the show as a 5th grader, for example, will be selected at random, after students who have not participated previously.  Finally, High school and Middle school students will be considered by grade level – seniors first, followed by juniors, etc. and 8th graders first, followed by 7th graders, etc.

  4. Becoming a cast member is a privilege, not a right.  Failure to attend any rehearsal, listen to and follow instructions by the adult production staff, and demonstrate a positive, committed attitude toward a successful show, will not be tolerated.  The result will be immediate removal from the cast.

  5. All students will be required to sign a contract agreeing to a behavior code that must be adhered to.  Any violation of this contract may lead to that student being removed from the show.
