Program:
KEYBANK’S
Careers in the Performing Arts
“Presenting and Producing Concerts and Musical Artists”

Featuring Cleveland Art Prize Winners
Cindy Barber - Owner,Beachland Ballroom
Brendan Ring – Owner, Nighttown

The business of owning and operating an entertainment venue is one of the riskiest. It takes nerves of steel, endless stamina, boundless patience and visionary instincts. It’s a ‘round-the-clock venture, where any number of things can go wrong at any time; its week-to-week success is dependant on everything from the state of the economy to the weather. You need to be able to figure out what kind of people are going to enjoy which types of music and then determine what artists will fit those bills, and then convince the right artists to play at your club, negotiate fees that are acceptable to both sides. Then you need to try to get the people to actually come and hear those artists. You need to deal with City Hall, the music union, tempermental artists, upset customers and underperforming employees. Then you have to be at the location all night, talk to customers, fill in behind the bar, bus tables, sometimes serve as MC, cleanup, count the money …

Who would want to do all of that? Brendan Ring at Nighttown and Cindy Barber at the Beachland Ballroom do. And they do much more than that. Join us to learn the intricacies of becoming successful entrepreneurs in a very risky business!
