  • Last attended: Heather McDonald/Mary Patterson I've been in this showroom several times for stand-up shows. The box office, which is off about ten metres or so from the showroom entrance parallel with the main entrance doors, is always very quick to distribute the tickets you may have waiting for you. Seating inside the showroom is maĆ®tre d and generally pleasant elderly staff in red jackets that happily and promptly seat you wherever you are meant to be seated. Cocktail waitress will be there to inquire if you would like a drink as soon as you are seated. The soundsystem is modern, as far as I can judge from going to stand-up shows (not sure about live music, which is the true metric). We were there for what could have been Shecky Greene's absolute final stand-up performance in December 2011 and it will always be what I remember this venue for. Whether it was his final gig or he will come back to entertain some more is irrelevant; it was a helluva show. As with most venues, I have a pointless anecdote, so here goes: once we were seated by an extremely pleasant male staff member. We were conversing all the way to where he seated us and that may have distracted him a bit so we were seated a table or two away from where our tickets were for. When the actual table ticketholders showed up, the other staff member that was seating them checked our tickets and informed us that we were seated at a different table. No big deal; I did not seat myself, as I am completely capable of doing, but someone seated me as they do everyone else in this shworoom. But this lady, the staff member, acted like we nefariously hopped over to the this table (as if it fucking matters) and was ultimately rude and cross/crass/whatever-you-want-to-call-it. I always see her when at this venue for stand-up headliners but luckily there is actually a pluraity of nice, kind, non-asshole staff that tip the scales back over to make this place positive in the nice category. That and Shecky Greene's final live joke may always ring between this venue's four carpeted walls. - E
