I don't want be controversial or anything but here's the deal:
I've been a student for over three years and in the past 6 months or so I've had quite a few performance opportunities through the studio (solo and troupes..yay!)
An old friend of mine works at a tea shop, are launching a new product, and have asked some performers (including me) to do a performance (one or two numbers) in exchange for some of their new product...So basically, it's a free performance.
Obviously I want to do this to help out my friend and because I really want the experience but I want to do things right too. I know that undercutting and performing for free is a sensitive issue in the community, to say the least!
I would never pass myself as pro and would want her to make it clear that I'm a student.
Thoughts?
