ECC Procedures are in effect for this audition.
An Equity Monitor will be provided.

Equity’s contracts prohibit discrimination. Equity is committed to diversity and encourages all its employers to engage in a policy of equal employment opportunity designed to promote a positive model of inclusion.

BREAKDOWN

THIS ECC WILL BE HELD FOLLOWING PRE-PANDEMIC PROCEDURES. Equity will be beginning
a return to the pre-pandemic ECC procedures with auditions taking place in the New York Audition
Center at the end of the month, with a full return to these procedures for all ECCs in all locations
beginning May 1. For this audition, rather than making a specific appointment, Equity members will
sign up online to attend the ECC. On the day of the audition, the Equity monitor will read the list of
members who signed up online to attend (in the order they signed up) and will distribute numbers to
those present. Members who do not sign up in advance may request a number after everyone on the
list has been accommodated. All members who receive a number prior to the start time of the audition
will be seen. For more information on how these ECCs will run, please review Equity Chorus Call
Audition Procedures (dated July 22, 2016) in the Document Library.
(
https://members.actorsequity.org/ecc-procedures).

Equity encourages everyone participating in the auditions to wear a two-ply cloth face mask, surgical
mask, singer’s mask or respirator (N95, KN95 or KF94). Single-ply face masks, gaiters and bandanas
are not recommended. Singer’s masks can be found at www.broadwayreliefproject.com/singersmask.
Equity encourages members to prepare for their audition prior to arriving at the audition venue, to the
extent that they can (e.g., get dressed, hair/make-up, etc.) to avoid crowding in bathrooms and
dressing rooms.
