You are a barrister. Your client was contracted to act in a children’s movie for ten weeks (50 performances). Your client who is 17 years old did not appear in the first ten performances (2 weeks) because she was sick. When your client returned the producer said she was no longer employed. Your client now wants to sue for the money she feels is due to her for the rest of the contract. Your client mentioned that they did not sign a contract and that she wasn’t in the right frame of mind when she agreed to act in the movie. Advise your client on the possible outcome of this action addressing the implication/importance of the following elements:
1. Missing ten performances through illness
2. Being 17 yrs. old
3. Not having signed a contract
4. Frame of mind entering into the contract
