Us
Before you contact EmeraldCircus.com please note the following:
1) EmeraldCircus.com (Including EmeraldCircus:Live)
is not an actual circus, we are not recruiting performers internationally
and will not send a letter of invitation so you or your group can
leave your country and requests for such a letter will be ignored.
We do not have organisational powers over most of the events we
attend, if you wish to work with or perform at an event on our schedule
please contact that event directly. We recruit our team for each
event from within our community and internal network of performers
but if you are based in Ireland and think you can bring something
to the EC:Live Experience please get in touch :)
2) EmeraldCricus.com is not an agency, and although
we have access to more performers then the average agency we do
not cover their insurance and any performer hired via use of the
EmeraldCircus.com site is hired by you and your contract will be
between you and the performer. It is the performers responsability
to ensure they are insured properly and YOUR resposability to check
this. We make recommendations based on skill and previous experience
and will favour those with more experience in the area you wish
to hire them for. EmeraldCircus.com can in some cases source and
co-ordinate a group of performers for an event, there would be a
charge for this service on top of the rates for each performer,
this additional charge would be donated towards the running costs
of the site and it's offline projects.
3) The average rate per performer per hour is
between €200 and €300, the average price for the same
performer and the same act through an agency can be anything up
to double these prices. If someone has told you they'll do the same
gig for €50ph - €100ph then they are very new to performing
gigs and have very little experience and hiring them could be a
very costly mistake. No professional will drop below €200ph
except in rare circumstances. It is possible to find medium skilled
performers for around €150ph these guys will have some experence
and are usually building up their CV so they are generaly enthusiastic
about each gig as they rely on word of mouth to get them new gigs,
these are the absolute lowest price range of performer you should
consider.
