Self Contained Acts
They provide the show in the space that you provide.
Self Contained acts offer a more formal style of entertainment with the performance area and audience area clearly defined. In general, they require the event to provide only three elements; the location, electrical power and seating (sometimes they only require the location). Once in place, self contained acts become a major entertainment asset. This type of act is often referred to as a destination point show, and should be included in any published programs. They can be thought of as building blocks for your venue, like food booths and commercial displays; used to construct the overall shape of your event.
