Apprentices will also attend strikes.
-
Apprentices will be assigned to strike shifts at the beginning of the season.

All apprentices are also required to attend our end of year event on December 18 from 2- 7pm.
Make up policy: These productions depend on our crew apprentices to run smoothly. Attendance is mandatory.
-
Any absence must be cleared with the artistic director at least 5 hours in advance of the start of the shift.
-
If an absence is excused (illness, death in the family,...), Apprentices may make up those hours by attending ushering shifts as determined by the artistic director.
-
To make up a strike shift, Apprentices must swap a strike commitment with another crew apprentice, so that shift is covered.
-
Apprentices will not be able to participate in workshops or social events until all make up shifts have been completed.
