Notice
The Sims 3: Showtime Sims who work in one of the performance professions (singer, acrobat, and magician) need to solicit a gig and perform in one in order to gain career experience. Auditioning for a gigSims can start auditioning for a gig when they reach level 2 of the profession. In order to solicit a gig, Sims must go to a gig location, talk to a proprietor, and audition for a gig. After that, the proprietor will decide whether the Sims are given the permission to perform at the location or not. If they are accepted, they are given a gig schedule the next day. If they are rejected, they can try auditioning again after 24 hours. Sims have a base chance of 60% to be accepted and additional +5% for each career level and associated hidden skill. The chance is increased if Sims have good relationship with the proprietor. The venue type decreases the chance to be accepted (0% for park, -15% for coffeehouse, -30% for live show venue, -45% for private venue, and -60% for big show venue).  Venue typeThere are 5 types of gig venues for Sims to perform based on the lot assignment. The better the type of the gig, the more Sims will earn money and experience.
It is possible for advanced players to build their own gig venue based on the table above. A gig requires a show stage found in the buydebug category to function properly. If the stage is placed in a lot assignment that's not listed above, the proprietor will always reject Sims from audition. Setting up the stageBefore starting the show, Sims must set up the stage. The players can choose to use the venue's setup, create a custom setup, or use a previously saved setup. By creating a custom setup, the game will switch to Buy mode. During setup, the players can place props on the stage from the catalog or family inventory. Setup is only limited to the stage, so the players cannot place anything outside it. In addition to the catalog items, the players can also place Lounge Lizard Magic Gnome and Cranstan Boonitz the Magic Gnome on the stage. When the player is done setting up, the game will ask if the player wants to save the setup for future use or not. Some props are locked by default and can only be unlocked by completing SimPort tasks. There are 9 prop themes: circus, broadway, mystical, neon, macabre, big food, effects, chess, and "other". "Other" is the universal theme for props unlocked from SimPort and the 2 magic gnomes from Showtime. Stage props affect the initial score of the performance, although the amount is almost insignificant. High score is based on the number slots occupied by props on the stage, the most number of props in the same theme, and the number of unique props. PerformingPost-performanceUpon finishing the show, the proprietor will tell the review of the show, which is more easily indicated by the moodlet the Sim receives. Any props Sims have purchased prior to setting up the stage will be placed in the family inventory. The result of the performance is based on performance score at the end of the show as seen on the table below.
There's a chance that the Sim will receive a steady gig schedule after the show is over. Sims will be scheduled to perform every week on the same day and time. This may or may not be beneficial as Sims can normally audition for a gig after the show is over, but on the other hand, they no longer need to worry about being rejected for an audition if they have a steady gig. Sims can cancel a steady gig anytime. The steady gig will be canceled if the Sim's show performance is poor or they miss the gig twice.  Bug A common misconception is that Sims may receive a genie's lamp when they've performed a legendary show. This is partially true; Sims have 100% chance to receive a genie's lamp unless they already have one in their inventory and must be after 20 days since the last time they received a genie's lamp. However, the code erroneously requires Sims to earn a result better than legendary, which is impossible in an unmodded game.
