Class Attack: Producing Shows with Paco Romane

Class Attack: Producing Shows

All Experience Levels Welcomed!

Each class is open to anyone of any experience level. All ideas and points-of-view are welcome and each class will be a supportive, encouraging, and fun experience.

My Qualifications:
I have produced more than 100 comedy shows in the last 13 years. I have produced shows in my living room (Casa Comedy) for 4 people and at Outside Lands for 400 people. For 2 years I produced The Killing My Lobster Kabaret which turned into The Romane Event Comedy Show which has lasted 13 years. I produced many Killing My Lobster Main Stage shows that would run for 3 weeks in mid-range theaters most of them sold out with hundreds of people in attendance. I produced many Killing My Lobster SF Sketchfest shows which were all sold out and got rave reviews. I have also produced many comedy videos which is a separate entity from live shows but we can venture into that as well. I also produced the very first Kalamazoo Jazz Festival and 2 podcasts. Many of the shows that I have produced have been featured in newspapers, lauded by audiences and comedians alike and praised by the liked of The Onion.

The Class:
We will learn all the “ins and outs” of producing a live event, how to best market and promote the show, how to make and send press releases, how to create a budget, finding the right talent, booking, setting line-ups, dealing with bars or theaters, how much to charge and much more. 

As always this is a judgement-free environment where you can learn to trust yourself as a performer while having fun and digging into characters, trusting your intuition, finding “the game”, and being an active participant
