THE WORK AROUND THE WORK
No two weeks look the same. The paperwork can, so the money side stops taking your evenings.
Cabaret, burlesque & drag
Put each part of the night on its own line so the producer can approve it at a glance, then invoice within minutes of curtain down.
Dancers
Choose the Dancer role and invoices use performance and engagement language. Classes, shoes and costumes sit with the booking they were for.
Magicians, circus & party acts
Record the deposit against the booking and keep the outstanding balance in view, so a private party never turns into a chase.
BUILT AROUND YOUR WORK
From a ten-minute spot to a month-long residency, the booking and its paperwork stay together.
Pick Performer or Dancer when you set up, and the invoice speaks your language: bookings, engagement dates and performance length.
