Meet Us at Trusted Advisors’ Most Important Events

Workforce and payroll in live entertainment is complex, and most providers don't have the depth to support it well.


Cast & Crew does.


Our Sports & Live Entertainment team brings over 150 years of combined experience in these environments. That means payroll keeps moving when your production does, not the other way around.


The Trusted Advisors program keeps us close to the business managers, attorneys, accountants, and financial professionals doing this work every day, so we stay current on what your clients actually need, not just what the industry broadly expects.


We're at music summits in New York, international congresses in London, and the events where deals get made and decisions happen. See what's coming up below and reach out if you want to connect.
