Ask The Industry Podcast

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. AND MORE!This podcast would be useful to anyone looking at taking a show to the Edinburgh Fringe, doing a tour or interesting in how to increase their profile as a performer.You can stream the podcast here (with show notes) - http://simoncaine.co.uk/ATI/MickPerrinOr get it on iTunes here - https://itunes.apple.com/gb/podcast/ask
