Note that although you can base it on a fairytale, the actual playscript has to be original. Better still, combine a few stories make them into a fractured tale!
1. Application and payment does not guarantee the approval of your application. Strictly no refunds once your application has been approved. Any refunds prior to approval will amount up to 95% of your total fee paid to account for the transaction fee lost to stripe and a minute amount of admin fee. 2. The organising committee will take care to limit and avoid stories / plays that are too similar. If a new applicant’s play is similar to entries that were accepted earlier, the committee will notify the applicant and provide the opportunity to resubmit a new application. 3. Applicants must be between the ages of 5 and 16 on the Production date (10th Jun 2023) 4. There must be a minimum of 2 children and maximum of 5 children in a team. 5. All plays must be original stories and must be submitted to the organising committee for approval. All plays must strictly be less than 8min long. 6. For a consistent look and feel of the production, basic costumes will be provided by the organising committee. If there is a need for you to provide your own costumes or props, please seek approval from the organising committee before purchase. 7. This Production is designed to give children a taste of running their show. Please let them have this experience by supporting their wacky ideas and letting them work out any difficulties (other than health and safety issues) 8. Should there be mistakes or further room for improvement observed during the Production, we strongly suggest adopting the “Hands Behind, Lips Sealed” strategy to avoid criticisms, and allow our children to reflect upon and discuss this with you post Production. 9. Permission is granted for me and/ or my child to be photographed, recorded, and/or videotaped in any form of media for the purposes of assessment, planning, evaluation, documentation in blogs/ newsletters, public or private events, and for publicity. Such photograph(s), video recording(s) shall remain the property of the Self-Directed Life, and New School Learning Dojo. 10.
