With a focus on the experiences of those nearing their thirties, Taylor Tomlinson's most recent comedy hour tackles her career, love life and how she finds work-life balance.
"I was a lot less hands-on during the production of my first special because I was just so focused on the material," she says."I didn't really know that I got a say; I didn't even know that I got to be involved in the editing process until after we filmed it. And [Netflix] was like, 'Oh, yeah, you get to be involved in the edit, as well.
"I remember one of my agents at the time saying it was a great time to put something out, because everybody was trapped inside and watching everything," she continues."And I was like, 'Okay, but by the time this is over, everyone will have forgotten about this, [because] I can't tour and capitalize on it.' Then, when we finally were able to tour again, it was so different; I came out of the pandemic with an entirely different career than I went into it with.
came out, I began developing a new hour," Tomlinson says."I wasn't able to run that hour in front of an audience for a long time, but when I did come back, I already had a loose hour ready to work on. There's a lot of stuff inthat I had been wanting to talk about for years, but that I needed to mature in order to make work."
