This is the last part in our 3-part series on Cruise Ship Work. This episode focuses on the cruise ship dancer gig, and their perspective on the job.

I interview Mitchell Thomas McCrone and Alexandra Cooney from backstage onboard.

We talk about how to get a gig as a cruise ship dancer, what a typical day is like, what the work is like, and all the good, bad, and ugly. We also talk about the differences in treatment between dancers and musicians, and the difference between entertainment and other crew and departments on board.
