WHO WE ARE
Event Talent Group (a division of Stage Door Connections) was founded by Rachel Bress in 2008 and quickly became one of NYC’s most trusted staffing companies, seamlessly combining talent and hospitality services. Drawing upon her 20+ year career as a celebrated Broadway and Commercial actor/dancer/choreographer as well as her corporate and business experience planning over 500+ performance workshops, seminars and events, Rachel saw the world where talent and hospitality combine to create the most successful events.

OUR MISSION
There are no less than a million things to think about when planning your event and you want everything to go perfectly. The good news is, with the right team, event planning does NOT need to be stressful. Event Talent Group works with a wide variety of event planners, event spaces and direct clients, providing the most reliable and professional staff to ensure we preserve the joy in event planning.
WHY DO WE OFFER ENTERTAINMENT AND HOSPITALITY SERVICES?
Simply put, a coat check who greets your guests is actually part of an event’s “entertainment” and a dancer who performs is part of the overall “hospitality”. By hiring staff who are entertainers and hospitality specialists our ETG team ensure the most fun, organized and welcoming event possible.
How do we do it?
We can guarantee the most professional and committed staff because all of our hires are 100% referral-only, personally vetted, and trained to join our long-standing team. All our staff are fully COVID vaccinated and are w-2 employees. Whether you are planning an event for next year or are scrambling to fill a last minute position, we are available 7 days a week to help with your staffing needs.
