You don’t have to be a comedian if you want to have a career in comedy. If you want to make an impact in comedy while also understanding the craft and business, you can have a career in comedy without needing to go on stage. Our guest today has an impressive CV making a major splash in comedy. He is the host of “We Are Funny Project” in London, England which is currently in its 9th year, MC, promotor, and comedy tutor. What isn’t on his CV is, comic. Alfie Noakes has played an influential role in the comedy world and has helped many new comics make a name for themselves through his courses and workshops.

In today’s episode, we discuss how Alfie decided on a career in comedy and why he doesn’t call himself a comic. Since Alfie is heavily involved in live shows, we ask him how the digital age has impacted live shows, and if they are doomed because of it, as well as a host of other questions our listeners are sure to benefit from.

Tune in for a closer look at what Alfie offers in his workshops and courses, as well as many helpful tips to new and up and coming comics.
