3 Safety:
3a) No acrobatics or weapon displays.

3b) Prop weapons cannot pose a risk to yourself, the organisers, the convention centre or the general public. So we ask that your props and weapons be made of materials that will not cause harm. This includes- but is not limited to- items that can cut or burn or are very heavy objects.
There will be a prop check at the side of the stage.

3bi) No real weapons (including but not limited to air guns and training weapons) or metal prop weapons are allowed in the contest.

3bii) No metal props or weapons allowed on stage. Small screws, hinges and bolts may be used to hold the prop together but must not be exposed.

3biii) Toy projectile props such as water pistols or nerf guns may be used so long as they are non-functioning.

3e) NO EXPLOSIVE OR INCENDIARY DEVICES TO BE USED- NO EXCEPTIONS.

3f) No mess is to be left on the stage, audience or judging area after your skit. No messy skits will be accepted. This includes but is not limited to food items.

3g) Choose body make up/paint carefully. Do not choose anything that will stain other guests and attendees. Remember to chose wisely for your own safety as some pigments or paints can be toxic.

3g) The event is billed as a family friendly event but does attract a varied audience so please choose a costume you will feel comfortable wearing in a large and diverse crowd.
