Performers

Does it cost anything to join Evoque?

No. PULSE membership is free. You can join by invitation, by audition, or by applying online. All work secured through Evoque is subject to commission, as set out in our signing agreement.

How do I apply?

Create an account, then work through the application. You can save and come back at any point — nothing is sent to us until you submit. We review every application personally and will always come back to you either way.

What happens after I apply?

Our team reviews your footage and profile. If we think we can represent you well, we will accept you onto our books and your profile goes live to our partner network. If it is not right for us at that moment we will tell you, and you are welcome to apply again later.

Who can see my profile?

Only approved partners and our own team can see your full profile. Members of the public see a minimal card with your stage name, disciplines and region — never your contact details, date of birth, passport information or physical attributes.

Can I edit my profile after it is live?

Yes. Your profile is yours. Sign in at any time to update your headshots, showreel, availability and bio. Changes go live immediately.

What is a Guest Entertainer or Legacy Artist?

Every artist on our books is a Performer. Guest Entertainers are featured artists with their own produced shows, presented publicly with a full feature page. Legacy Artists are our most celebrated roster — original recording artists and former members of legendary bands. Both are curated by our team; you cannot select them yourself.

Do I need a cruise ship medical or STCW?

Not to apply. Many cruise contracts require both, so having them makes you castable for more roles — but plenty of our work is land-based and we will tell you what a specific role needs.

Partners

How do I get access to the talent directory?

Apply for a FUSE partner account. It is free. We approve partners based on industry experience, and once you are approved you can search the full roster and see complete profiles.

How do I contact a performer?

Through us. Every profile has a Work With Me button that sends your brief straight to our team, who will come back to you quickly with availability and terms. It keeps things clean for the artist and means you only have one point of contact.

What does it cost to hire through Evoque?

There is no fee to search or to enquire. Commission is built into the engagement and we will always be upfront about it in writing before anything is agreed.

Can I post a casting call?

Yes. Approved partners can submit opportunities from their dashboard. We will circulate them to the performers who genuinely fit rather than blasting the whole roster.

General

Where is Evoque based?

We are founded and based in New Zealand, representing performers across Australia, New Zealand and beyond, and casting for partners worldwide.

Can I book an act for a one-off event?

Absolutely. Alongside our casting work we regularly place bands, guest entertainers and specialty acts into corporate functions, private events and galas. Get in touch and tell us about the event.
