Important information for parents
At The Courtyard Theatre, we take the safeguarding of young people very seriously. Our productions involving children in the cast are carefully managed to ensure that child performance regulations are adhered to.
This means making sure that rehearsals are not too long, or too frequent. It also means that we are careful to obtain Enhanced DBS checks for adult members of the backstage crew and to cover all our performances with the required number of local authority registered chaperones.
Youth Theatre Policies
The policies we have in place are:
If your child is cast in a production, you will be asked to agree and sign a document setting out what we expect from parents. Your child will be asked to agree to the ‘Code of Conduct’ and will be expected to sign to say that they will comply with this.
