A good evening overall. Tom Ward in particular was excellent. First main act was also pretty good (unfortunately can't remember his name, but loud and energetic). Middle two not so great. To the compere: please drop all the racial stuff. It just made several of us feel uncomfortable and is a very lazy way to try to get a laugh. You got much better as the evening progressed and had some really sharp comedy in places - e.g. the observation about dropped "T" when being friendly vs heavily enunciated "T" when cross. More of that kind of comedy please - observing human nature rather than replaying tired stereotypes.

1st and last comedians were really good. The compare was also good, but the other 2 comedians weren’t to our taste

The quality of the comedians was variable, but everyone has to start somewhere! The venue was convenient with good parking facilities and nice bar/lounge area. Unfortunately, the air conditioning in the function room didn't appear to be working so the room became uncomfortably hot. Overall, we had a good evening and would definitely attend again if there are future events at this venue!
