- New Talent Showcase
- Welcome to the New Talent Showcase!Formerly known as Open Mic Night, this show still features the spontaneity and variety of an open mic, but we felt the term didn’t fully capture the quality of the performances. The New Talent Showcase is a curated experience by professional comedian Matt Dundas, featuring open sign-ups for both seasoned comedians and newcomers alike.Each show highlights a diverse lineup of comics, with a featured performer delivering a longer set every week!This is a FREE show, but we’ve included an option for attendees to pay what they wish if they’d like to further support local comedy. Your presence is support enough, but every dollar helps us continue building this scene, creating more opportunities for emerging comedians, and offering them additional stage time.Please note: Sets are 5 minutes, comedians will be given the light at 4 minutes to notify them that they have 1 minute remaining. The Featured comedian will be given 10 minutes. Show @ 8:30pm | 21+ Sign-ups for comedians remain under the Open Mic tab on our website, and you can also sign up in person.
