All Artistes are self-employed for Income Tax and National Insurance and, therefore, responsible for dealing with their own NI contributions and Income Tax (law change in 2014)

The exception to this is when from time to time, productions put artistes on contract for longer runs, in which case they will be treated as PAYE employees of the production. If this does happen, 15% commission of their earnings is payable to The Casting Collective.

VAT is not usually applicable for any of our types of work
