No Sundays. For productions involving children, every effort will be made to release them early, but, as our rehearsal period is short, the entire cast will be expected at all rehearsals for tech week. Rehearsal conflicts need to be very minimal or none at all.

There are no Equity Contracts available for this 2009 Season. Most roles are open (see specific show breakdowns for which roles are cast). Mercury Summer Stock is committed to non-traditional casting. Actors will be cast solely on the basis of talent, except in cases where age, race or physical ability are essential to a role. Ages listed in breakdowns are "character ages" not actor ages. Actors selected for casting may be cast in more than one production for the season.</font></p><div style="margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 12px; margin-left: 0px; "><font face="Helvetica" size="4" style="font: 13.0px Helvetica"> </font><br class="khtml-block-placeholder"></div><p style="margin: 0.0px 0.0px 16.0px 0.0px"><font face="Helvetica" size="4" style="font: 13.0px Helvetica"><b>COMPENSATION</b>: All non-AEA actors appear in Mercury Summer Stock productions on a volunteer basis.</font></p><div style="margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 12px; margin-left: 0px; "><font face="Helvetica" size="4" style="font: 13.0px Helvetica"> </font><br class="khtml-block-placeholder"></div><p style="margin: 0.0px 0.0px 12.0px 0.0px"><font face="Helvetica" size="4" style="font: 13.0px Helvetica">FOR MORE INFORMATION AND COMPLETE CAST BREAKDOWNS CHECK OUT <a href="http://www.mercurysummerstock.com/"><font face="Times New Roman" size="4" color="#0000f6" style="font: 13.0px Times New Roman; color: #0000f6">www.mercurysummerstock.com</font></a></font></p><div style="margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 12px; margin-left: 0px; "><font face="Helvetica" size="4" style="font: 13.0px Helvetica"> </font><br class="khtml-block-placeholder"></div><p style="margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px"><font face="Helvetica" size="4" style="font: 13.0px Helvetica"> </font></p></div>
