Here is the place to write a Show Report for your venue, detailing as much information as you can that might help shows there in years to come. Include things such as platform used, traffic generated, how you attracted those audiences, audience interactions, tech equipment; anything that will help give shows a good idea of the venue before they arrive. **Please include your show number so we can confirm your show report is in the right venue forum**
As a follow up in the virtual spaces: list what platform you used, how you interacted with audiences, what days you found had better access for on demand shows all the little hacks and observations so we (PBH and the community) can learn and help and be better than ever next year

Inky's Horror and Scfi Show. Orig show 63 but changed to 5007 for virtual.... Four shows 8/9th and 23rd/24th. Run using Eventbrite and Zoom. Very low interest leading to almost non-existant turn out. To be honest wasn't surprised as was planning to pull show due to mixed results from in person preview shows, but thought trying virtual. I am willing to admit the title and blurb might have been confusing. Had it been pure horror it might have had a better draw. Used my usual good Logitec web cam and a Fifine USB mic which is pretty robust. At one point tried out my new radio mic (Hollyland) for future and use. Zoom is handy for the interaction which as a storyteller is useful but not as much as comedy. Using Eventbrite allowed for previous virtual fringe followers to find the show and this I think is where they all came from.
Tales Of Ancient Egypt. Added late so not sure of number. Conversely to the show above, this went surprisingly well, even more so considering the show only went online 3-4 days before the show time (25th). I think 10 tickets in those very few days with six showing up at the time when compared to the in person that was a good number. This was a virtual version of my in person show which ran the week before. Again, I think many from previous runs of this show at digital Fringe the last two years meant I had reliable Eventbrite followers as well as possible freefringe.org.uk entry. All my digital shows ran at 8pm which is handy for cross time zone support so for this show where I could talk to them before it started I had people from Canada and India as well as UK. They were certainly enthusiastic. I also recorded the shows and pushed to youtube after as well as emailing to all ticket holders in case they couldn't show up.
