Ok, well I'm not sure if it has been asked before, but chances are it already has been.

I'm trying to get some decent info on getting fire performer's insurance, and the closest thing that I know of is the insurance through clowns of the US, but I don't know if I can get it because I'm not really a clown.

It came up suddenly for me becuase this promoter that I have been doing buesness with for the past 6 months wants me to do fire inside their nightclub and all, and I don't think that the celing is high enough for fire effects.

Well, frankly, the insurance issue goes both ways - you need it for your performances and the Club Owner also needs it to cover HIS backside with the Fire Marshalls. The club owner also has to check out the fire regulations and make sure that both you and he comply with the regulations.

Otherwise, the Fire Marshall can shut the club, confiscate your props and levy fines and possibly even have the prosecutor file charges against you and the club owner. Jail sucks, so make sure you follow the laws on this, please!
