It was pretty awkward at times. Think the whole of the front row should of been removed to go get some life experience and shut up! Comedy was ok. shame soo many people leave to smoke it then stinks the place out. Bit more practice needed for some, or a drink for the nerves. More acts than expected which was good. Started much later then advertised which was a bit annoying. It got us out, but wouldn't rush back.

Well organised, good comedians with good material and, most importantly, good delivery! Can’t wait for the next one.
