Application Guidelines


  1. Applying to perform is not a guarantee that you will be able to do so. We will try very hard to fit everyone in, but we can’t promise everyone will get a spot.
  2. All performers must be registered for the full weekend package by the date indicated.
  3. Deadlines are firm. A lot of work goes into curating and producing these shows. In order to make sure things run smoothly we need information and completed requirements by the dates specified.
  4. If chosen, all performers will conduct themselves in a professional manner at all times.
