Hello Blue roomers. Firstly my apologies if this is in the wrong section (admin, please move the topic to the appropriate section if required) Does anyone have a rate card for scenic artists or set painters that are fairly standard they could share? I'm not trying to undercut anyone as I am looking to hire someone for a production later in the year. The venue size is 640 and it would be a 5-week run. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
