Performances
Due to the volume of applications, there will be a limit of 15 minutes maximum per individual or group (stage preparation, entrances and exits included). We will also notify you about final time and schedule of performance based on the availability you will indicate in the application form. If using recorded music, please submit audio CD’s only. Please do not submit cassette tapes, mp3 files or mobile devices. It is advisable to keep stage props to a minimum as there may not be enough storage space. A tent will be provided beside the outdoor stage for costume changes, but items used must be removed after the performance to give space to succeeding performers. We will not be liable for items that are lost or misplaced.
