    My husband and I took our two kids under 12 we had a great time! They got to go up on stage and interact with the show. He is a funny nice guy and I have no idea how he was able to do these crazy guessing tricks and was always right! It was a small intimate theater and everyone was respectful and seemed to also have a wonderful time. We had mediterranean food in the little restaurant before the show and he was going table to table doing card tricks. Family friendly fun.

    Brilliant! Went thinking it would be American comedy and wouldn’t find it as funny as British, but my face hurt from laughing. Excellent stand up by four hilarious comedians and excellent host, in a cozy, relaxed personable theatre. No drink minimum. Don’t miss out!

    It's amazing that this place is now an institution, a place where drag queen art is cherished. I know it as a simple gay bar with a swimming pool and cheap drinks. Well those days are gone. One comes here for drag shows and to support the community.

    This was a fun night out for our group of six. Arriving early gave a few choices for being seated together near the stage. It also gave us time to get some food and drinks prior to the show. The host of the show was really funny. We enjoyed all the acts.

    I've been going to The Setup for the past few years and they always have a solid rotation of comedians and for the price can't be beat. Add in a really good beer bar and comfortable couches, seating in a just big enough venue = perfect Friday night activity.

    We purchased tickets to a show very last minute and there was no mention of the two drink minimum required.

    Usually this would be no issue, but a beer was $17.50. It’s an expensive night out.

    My 16-year old son and I enjoyed the show a lot (and it was not easy to find a comedy show that allows in young folks who are less than 21, thanks you puritanism). A very welcoming and cozy place in this big city.

    Great, low-key venue in the Armory building, with great fresh comedy and a bar that makes really yummy drinks! It's cool that they feature a member of the kink community - the week I went it was a story, sometimes there are demos. The hosts are great and (unlike some other shows I've been too) are really funny themselves!
