Invitation2Murder Limitedย Actors Terms and Conditions.
PROFESSIONALISM
Actors must remain in character at all times until the event is completed.
An actor will always behave in a professional manner when at a client's premises. Any actor found to be under the influence of drugs or alcohol or who behaves in a manner likely to be detrimental to Invitation2Murder Limited before, during or after an event, will be immediately asked to leave the client's establishment, and may not be cast for any future event.
Actors should be aware that at some events (particularly corporate) there may be free drink, or the guests may offer to buy the actor drinks. The actor should not accept this. The Event Planner may allow this in certain circumstances if in his or her opinion to refuse the hospitality may appear to be rude. You must always remain in character until the event is completed.
ย SAFETY
In the interests of health and safety, any interaction or performance that requires choreography (such as a fight scene) must in all circumstances be rehearsed beforehand. The choreography must then be strictly adhered to during the performance. If it has not been rehearsed, it must not be performed. An actor must report anything they consider dangerous at a venue, to the Event Planner.
ย COSTUMES
It is the actor's responsibility to dress in a costume appropriate to the part they are playing. The majority of scripts require โsmartโ or โformalโ attire, although specific eras or costume guidance will be specified in the script, and we would encourage you to dress accordingly if possible. A dinner suit or formal dress is vital for the majority of roles. For a period script, Invitation2Murder Limited will provide costumes. If you are unsure of what you should wear, contact your event planner to discuss your options. We do not expect you to hire costumes. If an actor hires a costume, no reimbursement will be made.
ย CONFIRMING ATTENDANCE AT EVENTS
If you are cast at an event, please contact your Event Planner (appointed by Invitation2Murder Limited) at least FIVE days before the event to confirm your availability. Failure to confirm your attendance at the event can lead to your role being re-cast. A persistent failure to confirm your attendance at events will lead to you not being offered future castings. Please only use the Event Planner contact details provided on the casting document to confirm your attendance at an event.
