What is Don't Tell Comedy?

Don't Tell Comedy is a grassroots organization that brings together comedians, hosts, and guests, for mysterious nights full of laughter, friendship and good vibes.

Do the comedians get paid?

Comedians are often undervalued and underappreciated. Don't Tell Comedy was started by, and in most cities is run by, comedians so it is extremely important to us that every single comedian is paid for performing on our shows.

CAN I BRING PETS?

While we love them, pets are not permitted at our shows (with the exception of registered service companions).

*In rare cases, these and/or other event policies may be subject to change to align with the needs of a particular venue or event circumstance. Please refer to our Terms of Service for more information.

How did Don't Tell Comedy Start?

Kyle KA, the creator of DTC, grew sick and tired of paying for a 2 drink minimum at comedy clubs. Kyle had so much fun at one of his friends backyard comedy shows that he started Don't Tell Comedy with the hopes of bringing top talent into fun, community settings where comedy lovers can laugh and hang out on a budget.
