Ticketing and show management for dance recitals and showcases
A showcase on Kompdesk is a live, ticketed show without judging or registration admin. Build your programme performance by performance, manage the cast and their music, sell tickets, and run the show from one screen.
Programme, cast and music
Create each performance in the Schedule Builder, link the cast members who appear in it and upload the music. The running order is your programme, and cast members see their own performances in their dancer portal.
- Performance by performance programme
- Cast list linked to performances
- Music that sets each duration automatically
Ticket sales
Sell tickets online with your own ticket types, prices and capacity per day or per show. Issue complimentary tickets for sponsors and volunteers, and follow sales and revenue on the ticket dashboard.
- Ticket types, prices and capacity per show
- Complimentary allocations
- Orders, revenue and remaining capacity at a glance
Show day
Check guests in at the door by ticket number, let the MC run the show from the live running order, and give the audience a live programme on their phones through the ticket link.
- Door check-in
- MC tools and live running order
- Live programme for the audience
Questions
How much does a showcase cost to run?
Showcase tokens cost half the price of a competition event token and include a larger ticket allowance, because ticketing is a showcase's only revenue.
Can a competition also sell tickets?
Yes. Ticketing is available for in-person competitions too, with door check-in on the day.
