Please read carefully to ensure your success in every stage of YPT’s Charlie and the Chocolate Factory Tech Team process!
1. Prepare and bring 4 packets of the following typed forms, stapled together in the following order. (Forms will be posted here by January 16th.)
Tech Team Application Form
- Fill-in Format: Type the form online, print it, and include a copy of it in each of your 4 audition packets. Feel free to attach resume! Make sure that you fill out each section of the Audition Form carefully.
Tech Team Conflict Calendar – Important:
- Type this form online, print it, and include a copy of it in each of your 4 application packets.
- Be complete, accurate, and thorough on this form. Triple-check that you have included all conflicts.
- Make and keep a copy for yourself.
Recent Photo of Yourself (may be a copy). Staple the photo facing the opposite direction as the forms in your application packet, so that when a director flips the packet over, your photo will be visible on top.
2. YPT Charlie and the Chocolate Factory Team Policies and Procedures Contract:
