I am an entertainer and am at a big loss right now where to turn and which direction to go. One thing I know is that after performing for over 20 years I know theater people help each other out and that is what I am relying on at this time.
I have my own show called The Mental Mystery Tour. It is an audience participation mind reading show and it has been very successful for me. I do mostly cruise ships and theme parks like Six Flags. I have also done several fundraisers for community theaters with a share of the gate arrangement. This has worked very well for many theaters and has often put a stage under my feet that is not moving, and I like that. I am looking for a way to contact theaters to let them know my show is available. I have an agent here in Florida and she has been very good for me but is not aggressive. She books me when people ask for a mentalist. I have been in the theater since I was a kid and my good friend, Joan Fontaine says I need to just ask the theater community and I will get the answers I need. I PREDICT I will get the answers that may help me. If you want to see my web page it is www.mentalmysterytour.com ![]() |

I think the best way is to set yourself up a package to send to different theatres. There are so many theatres that are looking for new and fun ways to raise money, I am sure you will get a number of responses.
Another way would be to chose a location you want to hit and find a not for profit charity or group and just offer your show to them as a fund raising event. You could also try E mailing your web site to different theatres. You could also just rent a hall, the Elks, Amvets, local grange halls, etc.., print off some posters, get in touch with local radio and news papers and put on your own show. Hope this helps. I would also think of getting another agent that has more time for you. |

Thanks for your thoughts. I have contacted several more agents and have been listed with two of them.
I have 4 walled my show before but it is a lot of work and the results have never been that exciting. I have always made money but when you rent the theater you don't always get the support from them that could help fill the house. |
