What is the difference between Reserved and General Admission seating?
Reserved tickets are seats that we save for you in the Showroom. Patrons who purchase Reserved seats will be given the best available seats for the size of their party. These tickets can only be pre-purchased online. General Admission seats are available on a first-come, first-sat basis. The earlier you arrive, the better your seating will be. General Admission seats may be pre-purchased online or you may make a reservation over the phone. General Admission tickets expire 45 minutes prior to showtime. All reservations, including online purchases, EXPIRE at showtime.


What time should I arrive?
Our showroom with full bar and food service is open nightly @ 6:30PM. General Admission tickets must be claimed 30 minutes prior to showtime. All reservations, including online purchases, must be claimed by showtime.

We accept VISA, MasterCard, Discover, American Express, and debit cards. No personal checks accepted.


What is the refund policy?
All sales are final. There are absolutely no refunds or exchanges.


Is there a drink minimum?
Instead of a drink minimum, we have a two-item minimum in the Showroom (e.g. 1 soda and 1 appetizer). Items purchased outside the showroom before the show do NOT count toward the two-item minimum.


Should I research the comedian before attending a show?
Yes. Comedy is subjective and certain comedians are not for everybody. Watching a YouTube clip or reading the headliner's biography is a great way to get insight on the expected performance.


What is the Showroom like? How does seating work?
The Showroom arrangement is similar to a cabaret theater with chairs surrounding tables, facing the stage. With friendly and discreet table service, we ensure you won't miss any of the action. Reserved ticket holders are given priority seating nearer to the front of the house. General Admission seating is on a first-come-first-serve basis.
