Festival Director @ronan_freeburn used the opportunity to advocate on behalf of the WA comedy industry and also point out how underfunded comedy is as a genre relative to other arts in this state. 🤔

👉 With more stakeholder engagement, we aim to turn this around ✅

Part of my role as the Festival Director of WA Com

Part of my role as the Festival Director of WA Comedy Week is not just to produce a program of (hilarious) comedy events but also to raise awareness and engagement with the WA Comedy Industry.

For a lot of people, they may have little idea of the challenges comedians and the comedy industry faces and thus I have developed a graphic to illustrate some of what happens below the surface.

I'm very much of the thinking, to solve some of these issues we need to help our stakeholders (audiences, sponsors, media, funding bodies etc) become aware of them. From there we can collaborate and uncover new opportunities for collaboration and understanding.
