At Sweet Paprika, we get literally three's of
emails every day asking for spots on the show.
Below are a few misconceptions about how to get booked:
1. Say someone we
know recommended you when they
really didn't. This is not a
good idea because we will
check with the person and find out. And then we will
never book you.
2. Tell us you have credits or you have a set on myspace that we can
look at.
Premium Blend? Just take a look
at who's at the bar. Live at Gotham? Just take a look at who's
warming up on the show. Comedy Central Half Hour?
Call us, we want to book you!!
No matter what our good intentions are, we really won't take the
time to look at your set on line.
3. Never come
check out the show.
Hey, it couldn't hurt…face with
the name and all that…showing support, etc.
4. Sleep with Allison.
Seems like a great idea at
first, and then always, always ends badly.
PS Ophira's engaged. Sorry!
What we're trying to say is we have a wait list every month that could probably book three months worth of shows, and that's not taking into account our regulars. We also book at least a month in advance. We've also known most of the comics we book for many years, and we like to see people before we put them up. So stop by, say hello…and be patient. Dreams can come true!
