What time should I arrive for the show?

We recommend arriving 1 hour prior to show time. Seating is first come/first serve, meaning the earlier you arrive the more seating options you will have. Your reservation is not guaranteed past showtime. Seats may be given away to customers on the waitlist at showtime. No refunds are given for lost seats due to late arrival.

Can I pick my seat?

We will do our best to let you pick your own seat. It is much easier to give you the table you want if you arrive early.

Is there assigned seating?

No, seating is available on a first come first serve basis. The sooner your party arrives the better your seats will be. Your party will be sat according to its size and available tables.

Can I be sat if my entire party is not present?

If you pay for admissions for the entire party you may be sat before your entire party arrives. We will seat the remaining party members with you once they arrive (please be sure to let the host know they will be coming later). If you would like to be sat without paying for missing party members their seat will no longer be held. If we do have seats available once they arrive they will not be able to be sat next to you in the showroom.

We are running late for the show, can you still hold my seats?

If you call and let us know that you will be late we can hold your seats. If it is a sold out show you may be required to prepay for your seats so we can hold them.

If I need to cancel or change my reservation, what is the latest time I’m able to call and notify the club?

With phone reservations you always have until 5pm the day of the show in order to not be charged for someone who does not attend. This gives us enough time to accept people from the wait list and plan for seating. Please let us know if someone is unable to attend even if you miss the 5pm deadline, we may be able to avoid charging for missing party members if we are able to resell the seat(s).

*For cancellations of parties of 10 or more a 24 hour notice is required to avoid being charged for unused seats*

*You may be charged if cancellation requirements are not met*

If I’m unable to attend can I get a refund for my ticket(s)?

Sorry, all sales are final. No refunds are allowed for unused tickets.

YONDR:

What is Yondr?

Yondr creates smart device-free spaces for comedy shows. The Yondr system is a simple solution to a technological problem that allows you to maintain possession of your phone at all times. These pouches are utilized for some, but not all, shows at Something Funny.

What is a phone-free show?

A phone-free show allows artists and audiences to enjoy the performance without distraction, creating a better experience for everyone. No cell phones, smart watches, cameras or recording devices are permitted in the performance area.

How does it work?

Upon arrival at the venue, all phones, smart watches, and any other smart devices, are placed in Yondr cases by our staff and will be unlocked at the end of the show. Guests maintain possession of their device at all times and may access phones in the designated Phone Use Areas throughout the venue at any time. Phones will then be unlocked immediately after the performance upon exit from the venue.

What is a Phone Use Area?

Guests are able to use their phones at designated Phone Use Areas within the venue. All phones must be secured in a Yondr case before guests re-enter the performance space.

I didn’t know about the phone policy. What if I don’t want to lock my phone?

This is the show policy, and as a result we cannot allow entry to any guests with cell phones or smart watches if they are not secured in a Yondr case. For Yondr designated shows, you MUST lock your device in a pouch. If you do not want to lock up your device, you may take it to your vehicle and return to the venue.

What if I need to use my device during the performance?

You may exit the showroom at anytime to find a staff member who can unlock the Yondr case for you.

Table Talk – must be kept to a minimum. Your group will be given one warning. Any further distractions may result in removal from the venue.
No Flash Photography permitted
No Recording: Each comedian owns the rights to their own material, you however do NOT.
Do Not Heckle the Comedian: Heckling is interrupting the performance to upstage, disparage, or throw off the comedian. It is never acceptable, and the quickest way to ruin the show for everyone. It is also the quickest way to ejection.
Do Not Interrupt the Comedian: The common excuse for this is “I’m helping the comedian” and “that’s what you’re supposed to do at Comedy Clubs!” Comedians are professionals, they do not need help. Exception: If a comedian directly engages you in conversation, it is ok to respond. Some of the best comedy happens this way, and can make for a memorable experience. Be ready to let it go when the bit is over.
