Arrived early, not the clearest on where we should have been sitting, so missed some of the show…. Once realised, all staff members and management team were some of the kindest people I’ve ever met!!👍🏻👍🏻 Thank you again…💚💜🧡

I think the standard to the venue warrants the price. Staff were very friendly. The venue was very cold and I feel that a comedy night needs more people. The acts were very substandard. The first act was substandard but I think it was great how hard he was trying therefore we still enjoyed it. The second act was ok but I didn’t enjoy the man-hating which divided the room but, I guess it is what Norwich is becoming known for. The last act was great. Really energetic and he commanded the attention of the room. I think hopefully with a warmer room and more people it would have felt a lot better. Wouldn’t it be lovely if Norwich wasn’t just all about families and welcomed more single people. I think most have left for Bristol and London tbh. I appreciate it’s very challenging at the moment in Norfolk so please keep going! 👌🏻💪🏻
