There
is no business like show business or there are no jobs like
cruise ship entertainment jobs?
The first of these two phrases as a quite popular phrase which does not quite apply today, considering the
real situation of the entertainment industry worldwide. Places
like Las Vegas and New York City are no longer heaven for
musicians, dancers and entertainers, providing steady jobs, as
was the case several years ago. As a result of the present
economic realities and all major budget cuts in almost every
form of entertainment, the army of unemployed and
"freelancing" (meaning without steady income) artists,
musicians and entertainers has never been bigger. There is only
one place left, where musicians, dancers, entertainers and
production staff can find stable jobs and relatively bright
future (at least for the next ten years) - THE
CRUISE LINES. No other industry has been growing so
rapidly in the past seven years as the cruise industry. Just for
the last four years all leading cruise lines have doubled their
fleets and number of employees. Full scale Broadway and Las
Vegas style production shows are performed aboard most of the
cruise ships. Many new cruise ship companies have emerged trying
to get their share from the cruise market explosion. With all
the cruise ships currently under construction the number of
cruise ship jobs worldwide is expected to triple by the year
2009.
