Explanation:
Hola, Elinor.
No conozco la traducción exacta que se usa en la industria del espectáculo; "run-of-show" se refiere a la duración del espectáculo o del programa (mientas esté en el aire, en cartel, etc, según de qué se trate) Un contrato de este tipo es un contrato temporal, que dura mientras el espectáculo en cuestión siga. "Play or pay" es la cláusula que indica que aunque el espectáculo (o la filamación, o el programa, o lo que fuere) se suspenda, igual el empleado tiene derecho a cobrar. Te paso unos ejemplos:
"In Hollywood, they call that a "Play or Pay" Clause.
Some actors/producers/directors have this in their contracts whereas if you don't film the movie or production is shut down for any reason (Play), then you have to "PAY" them the salary you would have paid them anyway"

"3.6.2 Run of show employees
Run of show employees' service shall be counted if continually employed on shows regardless of breaks"
http://www.alliance.org.au/seven/log.htm

"Cl 16 Forms of Employment
The latest management version prohibits the use of fixed term employment in on-going jobs - a clear improvement on previous versions. We remain concerned about the re-introduction of fixed term employment - formally removed back in 1992. Management has confirmed that they want to use fixed termers for 'run-of-show' employment i.e. runs of programs of 40 weeks."
http://www.cpsu.org.au/abc/abc151199.htm

"An employee other than a run of show or casual employee will be made redundant
if his or her employment is terminated by reason of the fact that his or her
position in TEN is surplus to existing requirements by reason of the closure
or re-organisation of the whole or part of TEN's operations."

Explanation:
Serena:
Pienso que es un juego de palabras relacionado con la frase "run-of-the-mill" que es algo mediocre, común, nada especial o fuera de lo cotidiano.
En este caso el contrato para el personal que trabajará en la filmación diría:
"Este no es un espectáculo común y corriente, ni una obligación en la que "o actúas o la pagas".
Espero que le sea útil en su traducción.
Saludos afectuosos de OSO :^)
