Pricing and Booking Options
Below you will find
information about booking a show and my pricing structure! If you
have any questions about it, feel free to call or
email!
My pricing is by full-day and
half-day programs: A half-day program (2 shows) is
$695 plus a $95 travel fee to
schools over 1 hour from Vidalia, GA. A full-day program (4
shows) is $1095. Two schools
can also split a full-day program so that each school gets 2 shows
and pays only $595 per school, and the travel fee
is divided between schools.
If your school wishes to partner
with another school to split a full-day, I can perform at an
elementary school for half the day and a middle/high school the
other half, so this can make it even easier to find a school
willing to book with you. Of course, I prefer to perform at
middle/high schools on the same day and elementary schools on the
same day so as not to have to completely change shows - but I will
work with you and your schedule!
Besides my daytime shows, I can
also perform for After-school programs and Family Night programs
that are different than my daytime shows. This can really bring in
the parents and students for a PTA event or other function! These
shows are only $395 IF they are booked on the same
day as your school performance. Otherwise these shows cost the
$695 plus $95 travel
fee.
I prefer to be paid the day of the
performance but if that is not your school's policy the check can
be mailed after the performance takes place.
Finally, once you select a date
and check my online calendar for availability I encourage you to
send an email to the other schools in your system letting them know
the date you booked and seeing if they too would like to take
advantage of the discounted prices for booking at the same
time.
Thanks and let me know if you have
any other questions!
Sincerely,
Chad Crews
I look
forward to hearing from you and being a part of your school
assembly program!
Below you will find a few commonly asked questions about the programs:
1. What do you need from the school on the day of the performance?
I
bring all of my own equipment, including a microphone, sound system,
tables, and backdrops. The only thing that I will need from you is
access to an electrical outlet and possibly an extension cord if I am in
the middle of the gym floor (to reach the outlet). Other than that, we
are good to go!
2. How long are your shows and how can we decide on the schedule for the day?
My
shows are all 45 minutes long and most can be reset in 10 minutes and
ready to go again. So, schools on a very tight schedule can schedule a
show at 9am and 10am for example. If your school is splitting a full
day with another school, I simply ask that the morning shows start as
early as possible and are as close together as possible also - this
makes it easier to get to the second school for the afternoon programs.
If you have me for a full day then whatever times work for you work for
me.
3. When will you arrive on the day of the show?
I
try to arrive at least 45 minutes early to set up for the show. It
does not actually take me 45 minutes to set up, but I like to get set up
and then relax before showtime. When traveling through Atlanta there
is always the possibility of delays, but over the past 10 years I have
rarely had to delay a show due to travel, and if something does cause a
traffic delay or an emergency, I will contact you ASAP! My contact
number on the website is also my cell, so I can be reached quite easily
(except when I am performing a full day of programs of course!).
4. Which show should we choose?
I would normally recommend the original "Authors of Mystery and Horror" program for schools who have never hosted one of my programs before. This show covers a wide variety of authors/stories and is a great first choice. With that being said, some schools prefer to go with the "Nevermore" program if they are studying Poe and want students to be exposed to some of Poe's work in more detail, while other schools want the Grimm program if they are studying fairy tales. Many highs schools choose "Nevermore" or the Shakespeare program depending on where they are in their curriculum at the time of being booked. So, there is no right or wrong answer as each school has several options to choose from.
