Goals of the Iron Cabaret

1
No Volunteer Labour
Everyone in The Iron Cabaret is paid and the Cabaret uses no volunteer labour. By having Open Financials everyone working on a show knows exactly how much a show makes and the percentage returning to performers.
2
Artistic Freedom
Each performer in The Iron Cabaret is able to create and bring their vision to life. This freedom to build something of meaning to each performer means that the acts are High Quality and Original, with each act carrying a piece of the Artist.
