Anyone cast in a show with anyone under the age of 18 must receive their Pennsylvania Child Abuse History Clearance and their Pennsylvania State Police Criminal History Clearance. Both clearances can be obtained online. While uncommon, some clearances may take more than 14 days. Also, note that there should be no cost as a volunteer for the theatre. If you do not obtain your clearances, you WILL NOT be able to act in a show with anyone under 18 in the cast.
