Questions answered by Robin Grainger.
Q1: Aside from this Quickie, what is the most desperate marketing tactic you plan on using to get bums in seats this August? 280 chars
The show is incredible so it will sell itself. Seriously though, I love anything I can do to push the show; writing articles for newspapers and magazines, tv and radio interviews and appearances and lots and lots and lots of showcase gigs. It’s all a joy to do!
Q2: Cancel culture has finally come for your show. What sins has it committed?
It’s almost *too* funny so has become dangerous to people’s actual health.
Q3: The Fringe is horribly expensive. How are you financing this run? Did you remortgage your house, sell your granny, or start an illicit side hustle?
I collect rare shoes and have put a bunch up on my Vinted page, along with some other really cool bits of clothing. Check it out!
Q4: All shows will have their tough days. What sophisticated self-care strategies will you employ to survive?
Genuinely, go for a walk, speak to someone normal (non comedian) and realise how silly and amazing the festival is. Also, no one forced you to do your show- you chose to, put in time, effort and money so enjoy it! 🙂
