Integrity, high character, and leadership expected from Company Members in and outside of NYT activities.
Additional performance opportunities throughout the year, which will require additional mandatory rehearsals, typically the class time and/or the week prior to the event.
Members CANNOT be in BOTH Company AND Show Choir.
Company Member Commitment Agreement:
Being a part of NYT Studio Company is a higher level of commitment than other dance classes. Company Members are expected to be at every rehearsal and performance opportunity. If a conflict arises, Company Members are expected to give an advance notice to Ms. Carla AND their primary instructor (if it is not Ms. Carla). Missing rehearsals may result in being taken out of a piece, and multiple missed rehearsals may result in being asked to step down from the Company. It will be up to the Company Director’s discretion if you will be included in content/pieces that are worked on in the rehearsal you miss.
Company Members need to consider the level of commitment that is required before auditioning. For performances, company members should expect mandatory rehearsals the week prior and/or the class prior. These will be communicated in advance.
There will be no requirement for classes along with Company this year, however the Company Members will be subject to auditions every year. So, it is in their best interest to keep their technical training up. All Company expectations for leadership, stewardship, and conduct will be communicated in the beginning of the season. Disrespectful behavior or disregard for agreed upon conduct during NYT functions will result in dismissal from the Company.
