i have been contacted by several singers who wish to sing/act in a show im trying to get off the ground,initially it would be a one off 1 hr show,taking rehearsing into account,how much would i pay them to appear/preform  .offering box share doesnt work,there after cash,, obviously as they are pro.s
what is the going rate i dont wish to ask them,as they might come up with a daft amount,,or should i ask and go for the most reasonable/professional. ???

How long is a piece of string?

It depends on so many things. How 'professional' is the singer? How many rehearsals will be required? How far do they have to travel to get to the rehearsals/ performance? What other benefits are there? Will it be a good career move? Will there be merchandising opportunities? etc etc

Some would call me a professional singer, but my fee is a lot lower than Michael Buble's... :D
