Main shows

Our famous main shows feature a mixture of the best stand up comedians in the world performing anywhere from 5 minutes to 20 minute sets. This is ideal for comedy lovers to those who have never been to a comedy show in their life!

We have two types of main show: fully paid and donation.

Fully paid shows are where you pay a set entry fee, watch the show, and leave.

Donation shows are where the entry fee is low cost (usually between $1-5) and we will ask for a donation at the end of the show. Any donation goes towards the comedians and ensures we can continue to keep our shows accessible for people from every socioeconomic background. This is something we are very proud of and hope to maintain forever.
: Before our main shows, we will occasionally run a “work in progress” or “solo” show. This is where a comedian can run through their new one hour show, ironing out any kinks, before heading off to the Edinburgh International Fringe Festival or some local ones in New York. Every now and then, we might be fortunate enough to have a massive name come down and do a solo show.

In the past we have had Mark Normand, Dave Chappelle, Chris Rock, Bill Burr, Trevor Noah, Amy Schumer, Stavros Halkias, Michael Che, Michelle Wolf, and many more add one hour work in progress shows to finalise their material before heading off on tour!
