Would be good if the comedians were given a bit of a heads up on the main audience interaction before their act. Eg that there were Kiwis in, that a lady was Polish and a barber etc. otherwise the audience is waiting for the comedian to catch up. But good energy, good length for each set, enjoyable evening. Thanks!

We loved it but it would be great if all the comedians watched the comedians before them as there was a lot of repeat as the comedians asked the same people at the front over and over about themselves (very funny and interesting but shame when it's the same people 3-4x)
