Stage Management: Plays & Musicals / FORMS: Audition Forms - Legal Issues
« on: Mar 01, 2006, 01:11 am »
Working on the audition form for auditions to be held on Saturday...is it legal to ask those auditioning for their age or birthdate? My director thinks it's illegal, because of age discrimination, but I think it could be considered in the same vein as asking height, weight, hair color, etc...
Besides the fact that this is community theatre, and the casts tend to socialize a lot...if we know who is under 21, that makes me feel more capable of being the responsible SM; same with those under 18 who need parental permission for a variety of things.
What do you guys think/know?
