Laughter: the best medicine, or a good way to waste a few hours. Whatever your views; Saturday nights at The Comedy Club are the best place to hear it. Some of the events include surprise "special guests" and all events include open spots – a chance to see brand new talent trying out a professional stage for the first time.
