Fair 4 All Policy

Fire Desire Entertainment is run by Bruno Kopf and Joanna (aka Joey) Amvrosiadis, two professional fire performers. After a couple of years working for agents and events companies, we noticed some things about the industry that we were not happy with. This lead us to create our own booking agency and, what we call, the fair 4 all policy.

It is a common occurrence that clients are charged ridiculous prices and the performers get paid very poorly. Some booking agents take up to 50% commission or more which is completely unfair to the performers who actually do all the hard work. Some agents even go as far as playing the performers up against each other for shows to get the lowest quote but then still charge you (the client) their standard rate. It’s perceived to be all about making the most profit regardless of the quality they provide, but this is not what we believe in.

This is especially relevant to fire shows where the general public is easily amazed by a fire performance regardless of the quality of the performers. For the general public, a person manipulating fire is impressive, because of the danger aspect involved. However, fire in the hands of a professional is truly spectacular and something your guest will never forget.

The art of fire dancing is still relatively new in the entertainment industry and so, many onlookers are not aware of what a professional fire performance is. There is also no grading system within the fire dancing community as yet and so, anyone who owns a set of fire props tries to sell his or her services. The market is saturated with fire dancers, most of which are not professional. This causes a problem. How do you know you are actually getting a professional fire show that is safe? It is important to keep in mind that these performers are using fire, an element that can be devastating if not handled correctly!

We, at Fire Desire Entertainment, believe in providing a service that is fair for all parties involved while supporting the growth and development of performance arts.

Fair for you the Client by:
Providing you with safe world class performers and shows.
Giving you the option to choose your own performers from our listings and charging fair rates for performers and shows.

Fair for the Performers:
Paying the performers a fair rate for their professional services and taking a fair commission.
Giving the performers a fair chance at selling their act by listing their profiles on our website.

Supporting the Performance Arts:
We also believe in supporting performance arts and thus donate 5% of all our profits to charities like ‘Performers without Borders’ who teach circus arts to underprivileged children around the world.

Furthermore, we also aim to improve our skills as performers and as an agency. With this, we will send you (the Client) a feedback form after your event, and ask that you please fill it in and return to us with your feedback – please don’t be shy! We need your help, because without this, we can only assume everything went well, and we would appreciate your feedback, whether it’s for praise or for improvement.
