I have recently been given the opportunity to perform overseas (I am in the United States). I have never traveled that far as a performer and I do not know what to charge. The night club will pay my airfare, cabfair to and from the club, and they will provide me two meals on the days the I work. I would work five days a week for eight weeks. I would do three 45 minute sets a night. They also have an apartment that performers stay in so they provide lodging. I am not a big name, but I do get a lot of standing ovations and accolades when I perform. Does anyone know what an appropriate price would be? Best Answer - Chosen by Asker: First off, congratulations! You're getting there baby! When I used to preform 3 shows a night for 2 nights I charged $500.00 a night. So, I'd clear $1,000.00 a week. $1,000.00 a week for a feature performer is very reasonable. I think you ought to try to get at least that much, considering the length of your obligation. |
