COMMON QUESTIONS:
​
-
Is this a full time job? Nope! Our characters work when they are available for a party! You are required to work at least one party every two months, though!
-
What do princesses do? Birthday parties, fundraisers, special events, etc. As a character your job is to bring a character to life in the most realistic way possible. We work with children, so a love for bringing smiles to their faces is a must!
-
How old do I have to be? As long as you have a valid driver's license and reliable transportation, you are eligible to be a princess for us!
-
Is this paid? Of course! Our characters are paid $12-$15 an hour for events, depending on the nature of the event. Birthday parties pay more! Most of our clients also tip an average of $20 to our characters for a job well done at birthday parties.
-
Do I have to sing? Absolutely not! We do not require any specific background in theatre or vocal performance. A love for children and a willingness to learn about improv acting is all you need!
-
Do I have to be a certain size/weight to be a princess? Unfortunately, yes. Because many of our clients come to multiple events we have - we require our princesses to all fit the same costumes and to resemble one another as much as possible in order to keep the magic alive for the little ones! All of our princess dresses are corset style and will fit sizes 0-8.
