Ask whether the performance is meant for:

• Children
  
  

• Adults
  
  

• Mixed-age groups
  
  

Not all entertainment translates well across audiences.

A professional entertainer should prioritize:

• Voluntary participation
  
  

• Respectful interaction
  
  

• Reading social cues
  
  

If the answer centers on “big reactions” without mentioning comfort, that’s worth noting.

Events rarely go exactly as planned. Ask how the entertainer handles:

• Noise and movement
  
  

• Layout changes
  
  

• Different energy levels
  
  

Adaptability is a hallmark of professionalism.

A wedding, corporate event, fundraiser, and birthday party all require different approaches.

Experience in your specific setting matters more than general talent.

Clear communication reduces stress and surprises. A professional entertainer should be responsive, organized, and proactive.
