  • I don't want to brag, but I know comedy better than most average people. I've been doing comedy myself for the past 3 years, before which I spent two working in the business as a doorman, sound guy, and volunteer organizer for independant shows, so take it from somebody who knows what they're talking about; The Laugh Shop is (almost) the best bang for your buck in Calgary. The room is hands down the nicest club in the city, with the best layout, most comfortable seating, and one of the best sound systems. All in all, with the right people behind it this COULD be the best comedy club in the country, if it weren't for a couple small factors. Firstly, in the last year or so, this club has become more concerned with regonizable names than with putting on the best shows. If what you want is to see the somewhat humorous ramblings of an early 90s sitcom star about how his career since then has largely fizzled out, then this is the right club for you. It's probably the easiest place in the city to get an autograph or a picture with a moderately well known celebrity, and they're supporting acts (MCs, middle acts, local up & comers) are great, but it appears the real top quality professional COMEDIANS, who have spent years perfecting their craft, have taken a back seat to these less satisfying but better known acts. Secondly, the location is less than ideal. When competing with a club less than a block from a C-Train station, located right on 17th Ave, the Blackfoot Inn (while nice) is kind of out of the way. But if you're in the area and not as jaded and picky about comedy as I am, then you really can't go wrong here. Most audiences will still have a great night out, and probably get to snap a pic with a familiar face to post on facebook.
