Description Table of Contents
 

Booking Performance Tours is the quintessential guide for anyone involved in the touring of live arts and entertainment—as a producer, artist, presenter, agent, manager, or attorney. Industry insider Tony Micocci shares keen insights on:

  • Relationships among producers, agents, managers, and presenters
  • Negotiating styles
  • Taxation
  • Technology
  • Ethics in professional dealings
  • Booking strategies
  • Nonprofit versus commercial touring
  • Special considerations for booking Broadway and popular music
  • International touring
  • External factors affecting the field
Booking Performance Tours includes nearly 100 pages of appendixes containing engagement contracts, technical riders, deal memos, and representation contracts, with extensive point-by-point analyses of all provisions. This book is destined to become the classic reference for the industry.
 
Reviews

“Micocci knowingly guides us through the myriad technicalities of our business to the philosophical heart of the matter: We’re in the people business. If you buy into this—and you should—you’ll build your industry relationships for the long run and successfully deliver more live performances to the stage over your career.”—Todd E. Wetzel, Director, Purdue Convocations, Purdue University

“This book is a clear road map to how our industry operates, from protocol and resources to thoughtful observations. Anyone interested in pursuing a career as a presenter, agent, or producer must have this book.”—Byron Gustafson, Managing Partner, Opus 3 Artists

“A rare perspective on all aspects of live-performance touring delivered with clarity, vision, and passion. This cogent guide will inspire those looking to enter the field and dare the ‘old guard’ to rethink current models of presenting and touring.”—Sue Renée Bernstein, President, Bernstein Artists, Inc.

“Tony has created an incredible and well-written resource for any professional in the industry, as well as students or new colleagues. This book will be required reading for all of our graduate management students.”—David Rowell, Assistant Professor/Head – MFA Theatre Management Program, The School of Theatre at Florida State University
