How long can you last?
Do you know how to please a crowd, or are you a premature bomber? Each comedian has a chance to shoot their shot and try to last a full five minutes on stage. Each month, a new Joke Master will listen to audience laughter and decide if it’s enough to keep the comic on stage. If the audience isn’t laughing, the performer will be given an early ejection by the Joke Master. This is a true test for comics to flex their comedic prowess and prove they can perform under pressure. Prepare to face the wrath of the Joke Master!Five Minutes or Bust, a consensual comedy show, co-produced by Kimberly Bennett and Matty Malloy.
