EP48 - David Mulholland - Big Cheese at the Soho Comedy Club

David Mulholland founded the Soho Comedy Club (@SohoComedyClub) 10 years ago. Since then it has grown to 4 shows over 3 nights a week and all of them are ticketed and paid work for performers.

I got him on the podcast to talk about...

 

Why he’s frustrated about being known as a promoter and not a comedian. Has it become harder to run a paid night? His thoughts on the “free comedy” nights in London. What nights he makes a profit, loss or breakeven on and why. His thoughts on Inky Jones and London Comedy Club. How to market a London club effectively. How running his own club helped him become a full time comedian quicker than he would have done without it. How do you think the closure of Time Out comedy will impact you and other newer clubs?

 

AND MORE!

This podcast would be useful to anyone interested in the London comedy scene, running a night in the capital and what methods of promoting comedy work and don't work.
