Subject line: Visiting from [your city] [Dates] referred by [referral]
Hi Booker,
I’ll be visiting [Booker City] on [dates] and [referral] recommended I reach out to you to see if you have any available spots during that time. [If you wanna add some flattering pleasantries and suck up, do it here BRIEFLY]
I’ve been performing in [your city] for [x] years, including [stand-up achievements, doesn't need to be credits credits - e.g., house feature at the local Chuckle Hut, produce a popular show featured in a local Best of List, JFL New Faces, whatever]. [Now list any decent national credits, if you have a popular podcast or web series that can speak to your ability to draw]
Here’s a link to a set I recently did at [show/club]: [link]
Thanks for your time, I look forward to hearing from you!
