Keith Maynard – What does a cruise director do?

All the things you wanted to ask a Cruise Director but never dared! Keith began his career as an actor before becoming a cruise director (also known as Entertainment Director) twelve years ago. In this interview he gives us an inside peak at his role and responsibilities on board ship. What does a cruise director do? How much time do they spend on stage and how much in the office? What influence do they have on whether or not an act will be re-booked? We cover all this and talk in detail about what makes a good act, the importance of patter, sincerity and good communication.

This is a great sneek-peek at how things really work on a cruise ship.
