Is it normal to be charged a bond in amateur musicals?
Mon, 5 Nov 2007, 08:59 pmCan someone help me? I've been told that if I succesfully audition for a part in an amateur production that I will have to pay $200 bond. Is this normal or should I be suspicious?
Yeah, that's ridiculous.

Besides, if the deal is to encourage people not dropping out, they can still show up to performances and not hand back the script - and still be out $200.
I'd say avoid the role. There's plenty of other amateur groups out there to be a part of.
