Have you considered a longer term strategy that if you don't show up to load in and strike you don't get cast in the next several shows? That was my alma mater's rule and so far as I know everyone was always at every strike...

I had required load-in put in the “contracts” of those cast in the current show and about a third showed up (most of whom are in my Stagecraft class and they knew they would have grade issues if they didn't).

But, as our department is struggling to gain recognition on campus, I think that would hurt the greater cause and the students who actually show up.
