Make yourself at home

Before you book.

Can you book the performers?

Yes. Live entertainment booking draws on the partnership with Unorthodox Drag and the Metro Detroit performer network. Tell us the kind of show, venue, timing, and audience.

Can you handle both hosting and DJing?

Yes. These services can be combined. Include the run of show and any announcements so we can discuss how the roles fit together.

How is a production quote prepared?

Start with your date, venue, event format, and what you need help with. We’ll discuss the scope before quoting; production rates are specific to the event.

One conversation gets it started

Let’s put your show together.

Bring the idea. We’ll talk through the people, the sound, and the plan.
