Why an opera singer’s penis is worth more than a dancer’s
This interesting article from arts writer Andrew Taylor appeared in the Sydney Morning Herald last week.
“… on the opera stage, the family jewels are worth $67.62.That’s how much a performer, male or female, should be paid for each stage rehearsal or performance at which full frontal nudity is required.
In contrast, a dancer’s genitalia is only worth half as much – an additional allowance of $35.43 (which will rise to $36.49 in January) is paid to Sydney Dance Company performers.”
