⭐️ Pay ⭐️
No experience is required except for a background in working with children or acting.
All training is paid and provided.
Current performers make between $150-$600 per weekend.

You’re paid for preparing for each show, performing, overtime, mileage, AND driving! (yep–srsly)
⭐️ Popular Question ⭐️
“I’VE SEEN ADS FOR $100/HR TO DRESS UP AT PARTIES. WHY IS YOUR STARTING HOURLY WAGE LOWER?”
You are right. Some companies offer flat compensation like that.
The difference is that they *only* pay you for the time you work *at* a gig.
That’s because they pay you as an ‘independent contractor’.
We don’t do that.
Instead, we pay you as an ‘employee’ for *everything* it takes to do the gig (driving, prep, supplies etc) AND the gig itself.
So, which is right for you?
Employee or independent contractor?
If you already have your own set of costumes, insurance, skills, supplies, are comfortable budgeting around flat fees, and have a big roster of companies that hire you, working as an independent contractor is probably right for you.
If you prefer that ‘be your own boss’ feeling, but without all that risk, working here as an employee is a better fit.
As an employee here, all you have to do is tell us the days you want to work, and we take care of the following for you:
~ Pay you for the time it takes to drive from your house to work and back.
~ Pay you for the wear and tear on your car by mile
~ Save your time by booking clients for you
~ Provide all your costumes
~ Pay you for your time at each gig, including overtime
~ Provide safety and sanitary supplies (masks, sanitizer etc)
~ Provide all activity supplies (balloons, magic tricks, face paint etc)
~ Pay for your liability insurance (in case you break something at the gig)
~ Pay you for the time it takes to do your hair and makeup
~ Pay you to learn how to do all the activities we offer (balloon twisting, games etc)
~ Provide sick pay
~ Give you access to worker’s comp (if you get hurt at work)
~ Pay the employer’s share of tax payments (we take care of ½ of your social security, federal taxes etc)
We also offer you something that working one gig at a time as an independent contractor does not.
Community.
Here you’ll meet fellow quirky, playful, creative, intro-extroverts who love children, costuming, and a good party theme, just like you.
⭐️ Who We Are Looking For ⭐️
We’re looking for diverse Faeries of EVERY shade, size, identity, and ability.
Our characters are magical because of the people who play them, not because their hair color or body shape matches ‘Cinderella’.
Don’t get us wrong, we LOVE Cinderella. It’s a beautiful story. From the past.
We’re here for the future.
We want children to SEE themselves when they look at us, and that’s why we need YOU. Crazy awesome, one-of-a-kind YOU!
⭐️ Schedule ⭐️
Weekends – Let us know when you’re available.
You can swoop weekday work too, when available.
