Contracts for independent performers, comedians and bands are no joking matter. In this episode we address the key components of a performer-based contract for shows you book outside of the comedy club.
Specifically, we talk about how to draft a contract that has YOUR best interest in mind.
We cover:
- Refundable and non-refundable deposits,
- Who pays for travel,
- Cancellation policies,
- Staging, lights and sound,
- Event time line,
- Performance time,,
- Why you need multiple event contacts,
and much more. After this podcast you will know the core ingredients for a comedy contract. In fact, this contract format is great for musicians, speakers – any individual stage or platform presenter.
