## Try Before You Gig

Before you book a spot, go and watch a night at the room. You will learn the crowd, the vibe, how the MC runs it and what material lands — so when you do get up, you are not guessing. Comedians who scout a venue first bomb less and get asked back more.

No upcoming shows listed at this venue yet — check back soon.

## Reviews

Real feedback from comedians who have performed at this venue, found across the web.

While The Queer Comedy Club receives high praise from general audiences for its inclusive atmosphere and role as a dedicated LGBTQ+ space, specific performer feedback regarding the 'Gag Race' competition is limited. One review from The Fringe Queer noted that while the concept of the competition is great, the experience was negatively impacted by the organizer's censorship.

The Queer Comedy Club | Gag Race. A great concept but soured by the organiser's censorship.
