Due to several suggestions that have come in from you good folks, we are going to attempt to set up a new section on the website. It will be called “Ventriloquist Listings”. The purpose of this is to be able for the vent community to be in touch with each other, and more importantly, it can be used to help each of you in your never ending quest for bookings.
How many times have you seen little posts on various blogs asking if someone knows any Ventriloquists in ( fill in the blank ).
Maybe someone has a booking and they are unable to make their commitment for whatever reason, but they don’t want to leave their crowd hanging by just not showing up. They need to be able to talk to another Vent in their area to find a fill in.
I can think of a multitude of reasons for each of you to be known and available to as many different folks as possible. Some of you might want to get together in a local vent get together, but unless you know the others in your area, that may never happen. I could go on and on with the advantages for being listed. We will list each of you by State. (If we get enough responses, we can even list by Country). We fully expect the list to start small, but over time it will grow.
WHAT DO WE NEED FROM YOU?
We need your:
Name:

AND a picture of you and your puppets for a publicity photo.
You will be responsible to let us know when any of your information changes, and we will keep the list updated beyond that.
If this seems like a good idea to you, then get your information back to us.
Email us with a note that says “Ventriloquist Listings” in the SUBJECT heading of the email. Send your information to:

We promise that we will not use this information in an attempt to make sales to any of you, so you will not be contacted by us unless you have signed up for our Email Newsletter.
This is only being done as a service to the Vent Community.
Thanks and we will talk again next week.
