Pay or play contract
A pay or play clause in an entertainment contract means that the person who is being hired (typically an actor) is guaranteed payment regardless of whether he or she actually works. For example, if a natural disaster shuts down a production, or a new director is brought on who wants to make casting changes, actors with pay-or-play contracts will receive their contracted salary even though they are no longer on the project.
