EP55 - Mick Perrin - The secrets behind the global touring circuit. - a podcast by Simon Caine

from 2016-06-30T22:47:03

:: ::

Mick Perrin (@MickPerrin) got into comedy tour promotion over 20 years ago. His first tour was Eddie Izzard's arena tour (which in itself was the first of its kind). Now Mick Perrin Worldwide tours artists in 20+ countries. Recently he set up a management agency for comedians whose 2nd language is English. 

I got him on the pod to talk about - 

 

  • Does TV help or hinder a comedian?
  • What is a character comedian and should they be allowed to say things?
  • How much thought and effort goes into organizing a global arena tour.
  • Why he keeps going back to Edinburgh even though he loses money every year.
  • The value and power of social media in terms of building an audience.
