How I Write Clips(@PerellClips):Taylor Tomlinson on the key to good crowd work: "I like to do crowd work at my live shows, but I do it in a very structured way. I usually sprinkle it throughout the show every 15 to 20 minutes." "I ask the audience a specific question that is related to the hour. So it's generally something that I do wanna know. I think that's kind of the key to crowd work." "If it goes weird, I'll deflect or I'll make it about me. I never want anyone to feel bad or regret talking to me." "Sometimes it goes somewhere. Sometimes it doesn't. It's why I'm so meticulous about writing out my set and having clear transitions so that I can get back into the hour really seamlessly."
