Comedians in the Cloud- 16th episode of The Ivy League of Comedy's Coffee in the Cloud... with Comedians, guests Noam Dworman & Marion Grodin, in conjunction with the NY Distance Learning Association
Description
Comedian Marion Grodin & Comedy Cellar owner Noam Dworman, with co-hosts Shaun Eli (The Ivy League of Comedy) and Tom Capone (NY Distance Learning Association)
In this episode Noam talks about shutting down his club at the start of the pandemic. Shaun says the reason there isn’t as big an outcry to re-open comedy clubs as there is for restaurants is that there are simply way more restaurants. Shaun says he thinks that a two drink minimum is a silly business model but Noam explains that most people are going to drink anyway so they’d prefer a minimum to a higher ticket price. Tom asks his usual questions about comedians doing shows via Zoom and Marion explains how her performance, with a lot of audience interaction, can be adapted for shows on the web. Shaun talks about marketing comedy shows and how comedians picking on the audience makes that job more difficult. And Shaun and Noam discuss the practice of dropping the checks on tables while a comedian is still on stage, which almost all clubs do but Noam’s clubs do not.
