• If you are a student with many other time commitments that may interfere with these rehearsals, this will not be a good fit for you.

• Actors need to be on time for rehearsals and need to stay for the entire rehearsal each week.

• All actors will be signing a Production Contract if offered a role. Please read the CTA Guidelines to familiarize yourself with our policies. You can find this under the "About Us" tab along with a copy of our production contract.

• Actors must follow CTA dress requirement protocol for each day of rehearsal. We are not lenient in this area. You can find our dress protocol in our code of conduct located under the About Us tab.
