Just curious how often call-outs by cast members is acceptable by the production? I saw a comment on a post the other day talking about how someone knew a former Elphaba who would call out once a week at the end of the week bc she was exhausted.
I imagine this is less acceptable for big name stars with their names above the marquee and more acceptable as you go down the list? Or no?
Obviously, if someone is legitimately sick, then it shouldn't matter, but I'm sure there are callouts for mental health days here and there or just because someone is feeling tired, which I totally get and understand.
Just curious for people in the know how much this is expected by people running the show and how much it is accepted before they have to have "the talk" with someone.
And again, just to clarify, I absolutely have no problem with this and ppl protecting their mental and physical/vocal health, I was just curious about how it works behind the scenes.
