She rarely gets back with you in a timely manner, and will leave you panicking because she will never confirm your date with you. Now, the past few times, I've had performers show up for my events and everything was fine, but this is not a good way to do business. The most recent time I tried to use ACA, I filled out an online form, called, left a voicemail, and even texted the number on the website. Texting was the only time I got a response. She did apologize, but gave a flimsy excuse, and still did not answer my questions about availability. I gave them many of chances because the character actors have been great in the past, and she has always given me a great price since I work with a non-profit. They do lots of charity work, and make a lot of kids happy. I just can't handle the lack of communication anymore.
