Dies it? Ahh. Might give them a look then. No, no been.Anyone been to the venue? They seem to have some big names comedy wise but the place gets terrible reviews on Trip Advisor.
Yeah, thanks, Houch. That's definitely convinced me to go and get tickets now.Bumped into Johnny Vegas in a Sainsbury's till queue in Muswell Hill a few years ago. Apparently, he just lived round the corner and was a regular shopper there.
Well, you did ask if anyone had seen him live! :emoji_laughing:Yeah, thanks, Houch. That's definitely convinced me to go and get tickets now.
Hi NickI heard the Sean lock one wasn't set up very well.
Was he?but always thought he'd make a great contestant on Taskmaster!
In the process of this now - we had to wait until it was completely clear before investing in that! hahaUpdate the signs outside, only so much of Bez I can see
Always drive past the Rialto and think I might give it a go, but whatever is on never seems quite good enough quality. £39+ to see a B list comic from 20 years ago seems a bit much!
Whenever I go and see current comedy acts at the Arts Centre it’s about £20-30. What am I missing?
Very valid point - and something we try and combat. At the Arts Centre, they're going in on ticket splits and touring shows - here we have to guarantee them a fee, and to do that we have to ensure the costs are covered on a B/E point.
That being said, we have reviewed our comedy, and we're going to be aiming for the more affordable side of the coin from a customer POV. We're launching nights in the next couple of months ranging between £25 and £35 a ticket.
It's also worth noting for the Arts Centre nights, you're getting 1 comedian and maybe a support act. We've tried to aim it similar to a Live at the Apollo style - 1 host, 2 warm up acts and then the main act. All doing 30-40 mins of material across the show - nearly 3 hours of comedy.
We've got loads coming up - Just announced Simon Brodkins tour, We have Chris Ramsey, Russell Kane, Katherine Ryan, Jason Manford and Johnny all confirmed. We've got nights booked in for August, October, November and December this year which will be announced ASAP - and also Paul Smith coming back. Slowly becoming a hub for comedy!Interesting, thanks. Yeah I assumed they were getting a better deal. And three hours of comedy does sound good for the money TBF. Still not going to watch Johnny Vegas but I’ll keep an eye out.
Are you having Bruno back?
As an aside if anyone hasn’t seen Paul Smith before then check him out!
Went and saw him at the Hot Water Comedy Club and he was class, although admittedly won’t be to everyone’s taste!
Not seen it yet, we've nearly finished Breaking Bad about 5 years behind everyone else, then we want to start Line of Duty all over again to see if it makes more sense and possibly then fit TM in sometime before we start on the new series of Peaky Blinders and Money Heist later this year. I used to tell everyone I never watched TV apart from sport, but turning into more of a couch potato by the day!Was he?
You'll never keep the kid's attention for more than an hour,just ask that Real Madrid supremo.Very valid point - and something we try and combat.
