We were told as we were unloading equipment that the event tonight was cancelled, we were not told of this prior to our arrival. Where do we stand? I had signed a contract for last night's performance with them and there has been no written cancellation on their part. Might seem quite clear we have a case to force payment for last night's cancellation, just want to check as forcing the issue may cause cancellation of the remainder of the seasons entertainment too. Thank you

I think that I would "flag up" the fact that you are unhappy at the cancellation, but as a "business" decision, you may not want to take it further at this stage as there could well be other cancellations then following.
