Post Showcase

So we do this showcase yesterday. The day session was for Wendy's, who is doing an online contest that could result in the winner being on the Ellen Show, and then the evening session which was basically a showcase for the HBO Aspen Festival.

The comedians who performed in both sessions did pretty much what they were asked to do, and the feedback we received might indicate that at least one or two of the people who took the time to audition might get some good news. Pretty hedgy a statement isn't it. It has to be I suppose.

I still wonder why more comedians don't come out to audition. Is that their fault or ours? I don't know. I do know that most comedians take a long time to learn how to audition, so my thinking is that if you have a chance to audition you should take it. Performing in front of no audience or an audience of comedians can be very disorienting. If you are really to raw and stink, it won't really matter because no one will remember you anyway, so get your name on the list and get out there.
