HornTeacher Posted July 12, 2014 Share Posted July 12, 2014 Serious question (yes, there IS a serious bone in this body...somewhere...) : What are the economic ramifications to Corps which travel to a given site, only to have the show rained out? Equal division of intended purse? No compensation? Compensation split among scheduled Corps only after the show site has covered all expenses? Or does this differ from show site to show site?

CACTSC Posted July 12, 2014 Share Posted July 12, 2014 Serious question (yes, there IS a serious bone in this body...somewhere...) : What are the economic ramifications to Corps which travel to a given site, only to have the show rained out? Equal division of intended purse? No compensation? Compensation split among scheduled Corps only after the show site has covered all expenses? Or does this differ from show site to show site? The contract is paid in full by the show sponsor- no matter what. Corps get paid whether they perform or not. Which is why being a TEP is a risky business.

HornTeacher Posted July 12, 2014 Share Posted July 12, 2014 Thanks, CACTSC. That is basically what I assumed -- yet didn't want to make an erroneous assumption, either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
