Casting directors have asked Equity for our views on their draft casting guidelines which are available here. The National Performers’ Committee is considering the document but before we respond we are keen to know your views. Some points raised by NPC are set out in a discussion document found here. Over the next week we’d like to get your comments on the document so that we can go back to the casting directors with comprehensive recommendations. You can either email Frances at This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it or phone her on (09) 360 1980 or 0800 334470.
