As a performer who now is booking and promoting my own shows, I am looking for unique and interesting talent to be working with. Right now I myself am not getting paid for my comedy or booked shows yet so I do not have any kind of show budget. I do guarantee you stage time if I book you.
If I book you, You Must:
1) Show Up On Time! If you are on time your late in showbusiness! Don't show up late to be on stage that night. Show up early before the show starts!
2) Be cordial and curtious to the guests who want to meet you and thank you for making them laugh. Obviously if you had some weirdo, hot head or a heckler bother you, then you are welcome to avoid that person or their group they are with after the show. I know about using some of your street smarts with weird or aggressive people. Curtious guests get a curtious response from you. Don't pull out a cell phone in front of them to avoid them or refuse to shake or fist bump their hand they are holding out top get some validation acknowledgement and mutual respect from you.
3) If I give you the 1 minute light you must finish your set within that 1 minute. If you get unprofessional and do not give me the mic back when asked you are not going to be ever working with me again. This has happened before to me with a very unprofessional rude, immature, self centered, and flaky comedian. I wish him the best. I did not find it very funny myself as the show host that night when he tried to jump away from me trying to get microphone back as he kept running over past the time he was excepted to finish.
4) If a cute girl is talking or flirting with me or a comedian or comedy show manager is networking with me do not interupt me with them to steal the conversation from me and bump me away to have them speaking to only you. If you steal my social networking or conversation out from under me that is considered treason and war to a promoter and booker. If the cute girl or comedian walks up to talk just to you themselves then by all means network away with them and socialize.. Interrupting me to try to take over my place in the conversation is burning a bridge and showing me your disrespect, indignant defiant behavior.
5) Do Your Very Best That Night! I do not want to see some kind of B material you are not into doing like you are bored or asleep up on stage at my show. If you are a better comedian than me or everyone else on the show line up then by all means do a better funnier set and job than all of us! I would love to have a performer I booked kill so bad that he or she wipes out all of us on the stage that night! I will not hold it against you but encourage you to be the funniest set on stage that night!
6) If the show has any guidelines or rules set to me by that venue has given me like no cussing or racial related slurs or remarks lets say, follow the venues house rules for which rating of content we can say or do up on their stage. If the booked show is an all clean comedy or all ages show I will be sure to let you know about that ahead of time and make sure to check to see if you can do a G, PG, or PG 13 rated set or not on that particular show. I get all different types of shows and venues.
7) Do not show up to my show high or drunk and inebriated to do your set. I'm not your mother or your father, I don't care what you do with yourself on your own time. But when you are on my show you are on my time. Don't show up sloshed and sloppy slurred speech or talking super fast on some kind of speed type of drug that no one in the audience can hear or make sense of your jokes. Comedy is all about timing and relating to the audience being yourself or a character of yourself. If you are tanked or stoned on stage and people are likely to get bored or shut you off as the audience. You won't be coming back or even be up on stage that night. If you might be nervous about going up on stage that night please arrive early to get yourself situated to your surroundings and calm yourself down to relax in time at the venue. Getting yourself and mind loaded to have the nerve to walk up on stage is a deal breaker with me, because it affects your performance and communication skills and your whole set in general. If this might be an issue with you please work with another booker or promoter.
8) Let different people know about this show and put the word out to people who might be able to attend to see you at the comedy show. I hate bringer shows myself, I do not do them. All I ask is that you put the word out to people you know or meet about the show I booked you for in hopes that they might be able to come to see you. If I book 8 comedians who are extroverted loners and no one tells their friends or anyone they met recently in person or online about the comedy show...Then guess who is in the audience? 8 comedians, a sound guy, and an angry club manager or venue owner who will probably cancel the show that night and not invite or book me and the show back ever again.
I'm not looking at the amount of people you will bring. I want to see the effort that you had put yourself out there to various people in real life and online that you can be seen performing at my event I booked you at. Show me how you made it known that you are performing on this show. I am aware as a comedian myself how hard it is to bring or find people to attend at all, so I want to see that you did your professional promotion of your comedy to the public at large to know that you at least tried to find guests or audience members. Many comedians on booked shows tell no one who likes their comedy in person or online that they will be on a show that night, that does not fly with me. If no one does show up for you but you invited and informed tons of people beforehand that shows me some of your professional effort and a personal investment in the success of the show and working with me again. If you are booked 2 weeks or more in advance about your spot, please share that with the world and your fans and friends who live within driving distance to the location of the show.
9) Be creative! Be unique! Be yourself! Find a way to make your material, jokes, stories, characters, or time up on stage memorable and stand out! Be prepared to do new material if the audience has already seen your old material you already did with them once before. Impress the audience, but most of all make me laugh and impress me with your comedic talent. To be upfront; I'm poker face while I am sitting in the audience watching anyone's comedy, until someone tells a really funny joke that made me laugh or tells a funny story that draws me in, I only laugh when someone or something makes me laugh. I never laugh just to laugh if I did not find them or something I saw or heard from them really funny. If you make me laugh and stay involved with you, you have real talent and will be doing good as long as you keep up doing your comedy. Each new set and each audience is a clean slate and a new chance to be as funny as you be that night. When you made me laugh and lose myself in your jokes I will always let you know and give you that validation, encouragement, and positive feedback about being talented and what you did that worked really well.
If you met me before and just want to keep in touch and touch base again...great, let me know how you are doing and how and where we met.
