cruise ships.
00:02 - 00:04
Ah, long ocean vacation.
00:05 - 00:06
But it's not just a vacation for some.
00:06 - 00:09
For some, it is an expanding job market one will
00:10 - 00:10
be discussing.
00:11 - 00:13
But in terms of the job market will be, of
00:13 - 00:14
course, discussing the theater.
00:17 - 00:20
Now there are about eight cruise lines that have been
00:20 - 00:25
expanding immensely in the theater world, starting with Disney, Carnival
00:26 - 00:32
Cruises, Royal Caribbean, Norwegian Cruise, Cunard, Crystal Hall in America
00:33 - 00:34
and then ending with Princess Cruises.
00:36 - 00:37
Now, of course, there are quite a few of them.
00:38 - 00:42
But is there any variety starting off with chronic Carnival
00:43 - 00:43
Cruise Line?
00:44 - 00:48
They incorporate led screens and special effects for performance enhancements,
00:49 - 00:51
with about 3 to 4 shows being performed.
00:51 - 00:54
Done each ship, of course, on Lee, the ships that
00:55 - 00:56
actually are equipped with the production stage.
00:57 - 01:01
The Norwegian cruise line performs the typical Broadway shows, such
01:01 - 01:05
as Rock of Ages and Jersey Boys, Theus or incorporate
01:06 - 01:06
Cirque during mealtimes.
01:08 - 01:09
And then there's Disney.
01:09 - 01:12
Of course, they have some of the most interactive performances
01:14 - 01:17
as they start off with character, breakfast or even character
01:17 - 01:21
mealtime. And, of course, each night there is a film
01:22 - 01:27
favorite that is productive, that is performed in a Broadway
01:28 - 01:31
style that can occur from anywhere from 45 to an
01:31 - 01:37
hour now, along with the amount of variety that this
01:38 - 01:38
industry has.
01:39 - 01:40
There's, of course, some constants.
01:41 - 01:48
Most of this just being Broadway, musical performances and, of
01:48 - 01:49
course, comedy.
01:51 - 01:57
Now is this actually ah, viable place for making a
01:57 - 01:59
living start off.
01:59 - 02:00
There's some definite pros.
02:01 - 02:04
There's free utilities as you're not paying for the water
02:04 - 02:04
or the electricity.
02:05 - 02:06
You also get food.
02:07 - 02:11
No rent in your traveling constantly, but that also brings
02:12 - 02:12
us to the con.
02:13 - 02:14
You are constantly traveling.
02:16 - 02:18
Your earnings also kind of depend on the contract that
02:19 - 02:21
you have been made, the length that you will be
02:22 - 02:23
remaining on the cruise ship.
02:24 - 02:24
And overall your experience.
02:25 - 02:29
However, the starting monthly salary tends to be about $1000
02:30 - 02:31
monthly. So at the end of the day is truly
02:32 - 02:35
your decision as to whether or not you would like
02:35 - 02:36
to work on a cruise ship.
