Understudy Company Agreement and Contract

 Understudy dancer should present her/ his self in a honorable fashion as she/he is a physical representation of GDC. 

GDC Understudy dancer is welcome to attend and take advantage of ANY of the classes on the GDC Summer Intensive schedule, we will be running classes 5 days a week. The first 2 weeks of the season will be used as casting for the show and the season so we will require you to be in class TUES/THURS as well as FRIDAY May28th-June 8th.

 

After this 2 week intro period you will receive your rehearsal schedule, but continue to attend TUES, THURS and FRIDAY classes.

All absences will be discussed with the Director previous to the start of the season MAY 28th.

If a dancer is over 15 min late this also counts as an unexcused absence, please understand that your ability to advance your position with GDC is directly affected by your punctuality and dependability. All GDC pro dancers will be assigned an understudy, this understudy will be assigned to that pro dancers spot if said Pro dancer does not honor their contract, understudy will take their spot as well as their show pay and rehearsal stipend. Pro dancer will still be required to attend all rehearsals and will be given an opportunity to regain their job/paycheck at final dress rehearsal.

This allows us to see how each of the understudy dancers work under pressure when presented with a challenge.

Understudy Dancers will not present themselves in a dishonorable or unprofessional light on their social media, Understudy Dancers will also be required to promote GDC as a program as a company and all performances in the GDC 2018 Summer Season.
