Header: How To Book A Show
Booking a Peter McCory show is easy. Here are some facts you'll need to know.

How Long Is A Standard Show?

Peter's standard show runs 45-minutes, though he is happy to play for longer, if you wish. He always offers a substantial discount for a second or subsequent back-to-back show. That's because he's already there, and he doesn't have to set up again! So sponsors often ask him to play two sets, one for one group, then the second for another. This works great for school assemblies, where there may be too many students to fit comfortably in the space.

How Much Does It Cost?

Do The Limbo It's hard to quote standard prices because the costs vary depending upon a couple of factors. Please call or e-mail, and Peter will be happy to give you a specific cost. Here are a few of the things that affect cost:

* How far away is the function? Rates for the Northern Virginia area are pretty standard. But for shows where distant travel is involved, an additional fee may be added.

* Are overnight accommodations necessary? Sometimes sponsors get creative and get local motels to donate a room. This saves the additional expense of lodgings for Peter. But he's happy to make his own arrangements.

* What kind of organization is sponsoring the event? Non-profits, preschools and child care centers get a discount!


Does He Require A Sound System?

Peter always uses a microphone when he plays! You'd be surprised how much noise even the smallest group of happy children can make. You have to be able to outsing them if you want to stay in control! Most of the time Peter uses his own PA system, and it is included in his costs. However, he's happy to work with your sound engineer if your event will have a professional sound company providing PA services. Peter has his own small system for small groups, such as birthday parties, and a larger system suitable for crowds of up to 1,500.

Those Details!

Assuming the date is available, you'll get a contract to sign which specifies all the details. Nobody likes poor communications, and no one wants to disappoint little ones if there is confusion regarding a date or place. But, alas... the paperwork is really a formality. Once you have a verbal agreement on the date, your event is on his calendar unless you cancel it!

Full Guarantee!

Peter is committed to offering quality musical programs for children. If you are not fully satisfied with the show, there is no charge.
