​
Please be aware of the following regarding DASH consultations:
  • A DASH application must be filled out for each show you wish to have reviewed IN ADDITION to your Membership Application. While you may pay for your DASH Applications as part of our Enhanced and Enhanced Plus levels, the DASH application provides us the information we need for each of the shows you want DASHed (title, dates, etc.)
  • DASH applications must be submitted a minimum of 30 days prior to the opening performance. We regret that any applications submitted within 30 days of opening will not receive a consultation due to the coordination required to schedule and assign consultants to the 100+ shows we review each year.
  • Applicants must also complete a Professional Disclosure Statement for each submitted production. A copy will be emailed to you following receipt of your application.

Thank you and welcome to EMACT!
