| - Went here with my girlfriend on a Friday night.
Overall: For the price it is worth it, a good cheap way to have some fun outside the house.
Service/Ordering: (4 stars)
We ordered tickets online, so when we got there we just had to show the receipt (on the phone is fine) and we given the real tickets. The tickets online are a bit cheaper ($8 instead of $10) than at the door, but the main reason to get them is that the show usually sell out. At least that is what I was told. The show we went to, was about 3/4 full.
Show (4 stars):
The show we chose was Forever Jung. It was 6 stand up comics that do their bit, then get analyzed by a in-house therapist. The stand up comics were varying in quality. The performers were:
Dena Jackson - (5 stars) - definitely the best performer of the night. She really got into the roll she was portraying.
John Mostyn (4.5 stars) - the opening comic, talked about him being Scottish and how he was trying to become part of Canadian society.
Jen Sakato (4 stars) - Talked about her previous relationships, and her half white, half Japanese family.
Marc Hallworth - (3 stars) Kept having the same joke over and over again, with a very slightly different twist.
Jess Salomon (4 star) - Talked about her trying to support minorities, fighting the power.
Anasimone George (1 star) - did not find her funny, talked about her being brown, and interactions with a white boyfriend. (But was more telling stories, then jokes/funny)
Food and Drinks: (2.5 stars)
We did not want to get any food as we wanted to eat out after, but we got a few beers. Each beer was $7. They accept credit cards and cash. The server at the bar, served the waitress cutting line instead of the customers waiting in line. At least use a separate area to server the waitresses, do not but in front of customers.
