Putting Together a Series of Shows

[zns]

Hello,

I am currently working on putting together 2-3 different shows that I am hoping to do for parties and special events. So far I have one story ready with my two main characters and am planning to write two more stories for it. What I would like to know are some of the basic things I should do in preparing my shows and putting on my performances.

-What is the best way to charge?
-What are the best methods of self-promotion?
-What are the best way to keep the audience entertained for 30 minutes or less?

These are just some of the basic questions I have about the work I am trying to do. All pieces of advice and opinions are greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Zach S.

Also, since most of what I am doing is in the Muppet style of puppetry, I am thinking of calling my act "Fuzzball Productions". Does that name work? Here is my YouTube channel to give you and idea of what kind of puppetry work I've done over the years. Enjoy.
