Notes: Creating comedy from buried ideas

from Making Creativity Pay · host Dan Barnett

"Comedians will perform all those unhinged ideas they had in their notes app that never did anything, I realised how different every comedian was and that looking behind the scenes and being in the artist's bars, they all had different processes. And they would try jokes on each other. And I was like, why don't we see this?"Continuing our series of episodes with those performing at the 2026 Fringe is our chat with Stephen Gordon, who is taking his show Notes: The Comedy B-Sides.We talk about the inspiration for the show, the logistics of filling 120 slots for comedians over the 24 shows as well as his other show Comedy Canopy which features a number of Scottish and Scotland based comedians.Instagram:  https://www.instagram.com/notescomedyshow/ https://www.instagram.com/stephengordoncomedy/ https://www.instagram.com/comedycanopy/ Fringe Tickets: https://www.edfringe.com/tickets/whats-on/notes-the-comedy-b-sides  https://www.edfringe.com/tickets/whats-on/comedy-canopy Find More about ‘Making Creativity Pay’Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/makingcreativitypay/ Making Creativity Pay Newsletter: https://makingcreativitypay.substack.com/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/danjbarnett/ Episode Image: https://www.instagram.com/ezzthetic.photography/
