Comedians

Stand-up comedians and comic hosts for weddings, corporate dinners, birthdays and shows. Tell us about your audience and Shows finds a comedian whose act suits it.

• Describe your audience: their age, whether it is a family or corporate crowd, and any topics to avoid.
• Say how long the set should be and when in the programme it happens.
• Tell us if you want the comedian to host the event as well as perform.
• Mention the language your guests are most comfortable with.

Questions

Can a comedian also host my event?

Many do. Say so in your request and Shows agrees the hosting duties and the fee with the comedian before you get a quote.

Can I ask for a clean set?

Yes. Add it to your notes, and it becomes part of the scope in the comedian’s contract.

How far ahead should I book?

Send your request as soon as you have a date. Popular comedians are often booked weeks ahead, especially in December.
