Hire Holiday Actors For Your Annual Christmas Party
If you host an annual Christmas party at your home and want to make this year's celebration more festive than usual, consider hiring some themed characters to integrate with your family and friends. An actor who dresses and acts the part of Santa Claus and some characters who resemble elves can assist with a gift exchange, a group photo session, and other holiday-themed activities that you have in mind.
Character Reviews
Contact some local talent agencies or event companies that feature holiday actors. At each business, you may be required to fill out a form that outlines the type of party that you will be hosting, the date of the event, and the type of services that you are seeking. Some businesses that feature holiday actors may provide listings of characters who perform in specific regions.
Listings may include a photo or short video of each Santa or elf actor and the hourly rate that each character charges. There may be additional details furnished that will inform you of a character's preferences, concerning how much they are willing to interact with the people who they are hired to entertain.
The Selection Process
Consider what qualities you would like the holiday characters to possess. If you prefer to hire a Santa Claus who has a real beard or who is robust in size, look through the listings that were provided to you and eliminate anyone who wears artificial facial features or who doesn't have a naturally large waistline.
Choose a few Santa Claus and elf actors who are of interest. Contact the agency that features the characters and set up a time to interview the ones who are of interest. During a discussion with each one, find out how flexible the characters are and relay detailed information to them, about your party.
If you choose to use a character matching service, you may be provided with contact information for several Santa or elf characters who provide the services that you are seeking. You will be able to speak to each one and finalize the details of your party, prior to officially hiring any of them.
Custom Services
Many entertainers are willing to customize their services. Custom services may include referring to your guests by name, telling a story that fits into the theme of your party, and handing out gifts that have been chosen for the individuals who will be at the event. Supply the entertainers with any supporting materials that they will need to fulfill each customized service that you have selected for the party.
