Code of Conduct

Please read with your actor and acknowledge on the production form that you both agree to abide by the rules below. In Arts Live Theatre we want to have fun in our classes, camps and productions, and in order to do this there must be some ground rules in place so that we ALL feel accepted and comfortable with each other. In Arts Live Theatre our programs are designed to be INCLUSIVE, and good behavior and respect toward others is paramount.

Code of Conduct

Arts Live Theatre

We will not tolerate inappropriate language.
We will respect each other’s personal space – no hitting or pushing.
We expect older members in productions, classes and camps be respectful of younger members, and set a positive example – be good leaders.
We are all different – physically, mentally and verbally. We each bring a unique set of talents and skills, and we respect and value the contributions made by others in our group unconditionally.
We respect our surroundings. In rehearsal space we are responsible for keeping our space tidy, throwing away our trash appropriately, and remembering to bring our belongings home after every rehearsal. We all participate in cleaning up.
We must respect the buildings in which we perform. We are guests in these places, and must respect them accordingly: follow rules, keep spaces tidy, and stay in authorized locations within the buildings.
NO cell phone use (including calling and texting) or hand-held devices during rehearsals. It is disruptive and disrespectful to others. Cell phones may only be used in an emergency or to call a parent at the END of the rehearsal.
Rehearsals can be long – be patient and understanding.
Be prepared. Bring your scripts, water bottles, and correct footwear (no flip flops or crocs).
I will take care of my fellow cast and crew and treat them as my theatre family.
I will refrain from bringing my personal life and issues to the stage.
I will not make negative comments about anyone or anything.
In using social media with regard to ALT programming, I will use wisdom in posting and I will tag everyone pictured.
Bullying will NOT be tolerated at Arts Live Theatre. This includes commenting negatively on performance, dress, “trash talking,” forming cliques, and any form of intimidation.
Upon casting, do not significantly alter your appearance in any way unless approved by the director.

IF OUR CODE OF CONDUCT IS NOT FOLLOWED, YOUR PARENTS WILL BE NOTIFIED IMMEDIATELY. Please be kind, respectful, and aware of others. It is a privilege to be a part of Arts Live Theatre.
