Comedy Night can be easy if you follow a few simple rules and you will be ahead of the game. You want to make the best situation for the Audience, The Comedians,

and of course your Organization. We have to understand that Stand-Up Comedy is different type of entertainment. It requires the

audience to pay attention without distractions. Where as a singer/band can play over a meal, TVs, or can be background music.

you will want to remove all distractions.

Best Case Scenario Set Up for Comedy Show:

THE GOLDEN RULE: Comedy Night Of Laughs

This may sound obvious, but let your guests know before hand their will be a show.

Comedy Shows do not work well as a surprise. When your guest are having a good time talking, dancing, or some other activity. Then you surprise them with a show where they have to be still, be silent and pay attention. (if they do not want to they won’t, the comedians will feel bad, and you may blame to failure of show, on the performers).

—-If you would like to surprise the guest of honor, that is fine, but make sure everyone else knows

there will be a show. They will be exited and ready to listen.

The Room (space):

–The room should be separate from any other event, bar, or activities

–All TVs and Music should be shut off

–There should be a stage. If possible the comedian should be at a higher platform than the audience

–The Stage should be placed where it can be well lit preferably with spot light (overhead lights will do as back up)

–Audience should be facing the stage, Long tables work better than round banquet tables.

–Audience seating should be close to the stage. Only a few feet away.

–No obstructed views

–Audience seating should have dim lighting (or off).

—Reason for this is that the spot light is on the performer, also dim lighting allows audience members not to be seen by others.

—Audience members do not want to be judged by other people by laughing at some edgy jokes. Let them be in their comfort zone.

SEATING: (Surround the stage with audience and energy and you will have a great show)

–Tell audience that seating starts half-hour before the show

–30 minutes allows the audience to order from the menu and get settled before the show starts.

— The #1 MISTAKE is that a comedy room do not seat their guests, or Reserves specific seats upfront.

–This can make a great show turn bad before it starts

— The Front rows and around the stage should ALWAYS be seated first.

–When you reserve front tables, you run the risk of the party not showing up. Then you have empty seats where you need them the most. UP FRONT.

—Solution. If you want to reward guests who reserve early. Let them know you can get them a front row if they show up

30 minutes before start time. Otherwise the front seats will be taken by guest who showed up early.

TIMING:

— Plan your shows accordingly. Make sure your event doesn’t fall on the same day of a major sporting event

(world series, Superbowl, even Monday Night football….etc.) Especially if your venue is a sports bar or restaurant.

–If you are in a small town. Make sure it’s not the same day a big wedding, festival, state fair, or local event.

–Weekends are more popular

–Shows should start between 8pm-9:30pm (This depends on your area and venue)

—Night time is the best for a comedy show.

–START THE SHOW ON TIME

THE SHOW:

—Make sure you have someone to announce the show will start in a few minutes

—Tell guests to get settled

—Tell guests to keep quiet during the show, turn off cell phones, and no texting.

Sometimes it may be hard to get all these suggestions done for an event, however

if you make an effort, and get most of them done. You will have a great show.

Your guests will be talking about it for years to come.
