Who's On
Join us each week for our showcase featuring at least five hilarious and talented comedians in the industry. From rising stars to world-class acts, Grassroots Comedy collaborates with top agencies like Comedy Central and Just For Laughs, ensuring that every show offers the possibility of surprise appearances by renowned performers - although we're a newly opened club, we've already had drop ins from Stephen K Amos (UK - Melbourne Comedy Festival Gala, Just for Laughs), Dilruk Jayasinha (Logie Winner, Utopia, The Project), Joe Wong (USA - Ellen, Letterman, Colbert) Mark Normand (USA - Joe Rogan, Jimmy Fallon, Colbert, Netflix), Jason Leong (Netflix) and you best believe there will be more!
The most important thing for us is to ensure you get a great variety of talented performers offering different perspectives and comedic styles. This ensures there is something for everyone in these showcases!
