Maybe I have a pre conceived idea of what to expect. Honestly i've never seen a live comedy show. The MC or the lady that was introducing people. She spent 15 minutes trying to be funny and for me, it was just irritating because she's not funny, and she's not a comedian as far as I know. And she was just trying to hard, and I don't know, I didn't like that, she was trying to be funny when it's obvious that's not her gift. You could tell out of the 5 acts that they progressed in experience. The first two were probably not as experienced. The last three were more experienced and the last two were excellent/ hysterical. Honestly, I can't remember any of their names. But it was the clean comedy. The food was really good. Kind of your basic catered type large conference dinner but it was good. The music during dinner and seatong was WAY too loud, people had to talk so really loud, It was terrible that they had that music so loud, It was very challenging and difficult to have a conversation even though you were all sitting right next to each other at your table.
Amazing experience at Fountain Street Church. Absolutely love the venue, great performance and a wonderful addition to laugh fest. Happy to help Gilda's House!
He was hilarious!! Enjoy all of the audience participation
Main Event was great !! Tammy hit all the ToDo ToDo’s making us howl. She really put it together If Gilda people hadn’t collected before the show, Tammy would have gotten more donations during her show so keep that in mind. Start up girl was just ok. Sorry Thanks Gildas for all you do
Tammy Piscatelli was great! Only issue was the venue. The PA in the church was substandard. Half of the jokes were in audible because of this. I was also confused about which bathroom to use. They both said unisex, but they were not a single door which you could lock. It was a public bathroom with multiple stalls. Again, Tammy was great.
I had seen Josh Johnson prior to this a few years ago opening for Trevor Noah and he was really good as a new comic. He now has gotten a great set now for being on his own. We had an amazing time. Great to have drinks and food on site during the show.
Show was great. A bit slow at times. But my main complaint was parking. Roads were closed down. No idea where to park ended up parking at the library parking lot and it was a disaster to get out machine wouldn’t read took 49 mins to get out. Maybe send out an email as where to park when things are at fountain street. Church.
The comedy was great! We had a party of 6 and were able to get good seating. Drink service was good but the muchie/ appetizer selection was not. People that came near the end of entry time, had a hard time finding seats together with their groups. There was not enough time between letting people in for second show while trying to leave from first show. Its was happening simultaneously. Very frustrating for both groups. I think opening the doors 1/2 hour earlier and giving an 1 hour between shows. move up 1 st show to 5:00pm and move second show to 8:30pm would have made more sense.
I found the Gildas venue very accessible. Very well set up. Next year I hope the comedian can plan a couple of sets. Wished I’d seen her more.
