By CMU Editorial | Published on Thursday 29 October 2009
Talking of Live Nation, the UK division of the live entertainment company, best known for its music output, has announced its intent to expand its comedy operations. To that end they have hired Ian Coburn, currently a promoter with theatre and comedy producers Phil McIntyre Entertainment. Comedy types Coburn has worked with include Peter Kay, Russell Brand, Rob Brydon and the Little Britain guys.
Confirming his move to Live Nation, Coburn told CMU: “I’m really excited at the prospect of working at Live Nation’s London office and expanding both their UK and worldwide comedy roster. Last year I worked with their US comedy division on Russell Brand’s US dates and I’m looking forward to working with them again”.
