Thursday, May 11th join Carrie Gravenson (Caroline’s on Broadway), Abbi Crutchfield (truTV), Kaytlin Bailey (MTV, SiriusXM), and LA-based comedian Erin Judge (NBC’s Last Comic Standing) in celebrating the successful funding of their 10-city spring tour with a comedy show and party at Kickstarter HQ in Brooklyn. The CAKE Comedy Tour is the first comedy tour to be funded by Kickstarter’s innovative new tour model, which makes it possible for independent producers to book national tours without the financial risk comedians usually take. The CAKE comedians teamed up with Kickstarter to pre-sell their shows before they even selected a venue, which meant no more 3 person audiences sucking up that tour profit. When they hit their pre-sales goals with Kickstarter, they contact the venue based on what tickets sales show. This makes it way easier to choose the size and type of the venue. Winning! Hopefully, more comedians will find success with this new model and audiences will get exactly what they want. Who doesn’t like to break the mold?!!! Embrace CAKE Comedy and this new way of comedy life this May!
Mentions: Doors 8pm. Show 9pm. FREE with RSVP. Space is limited. Food! Drinks! CAKE! Kickstarter HQ is located at 58 Kent St. Brooklyn, NY 11222.
