FAQ

WHAT IS DON'T TELL COMEDY?

Our founder Kyle started Don't Tell Comedy because he was tired of breaking the bank to have a fun night out. He liked hosting comedy shows, but grew frustrated with audiences needing to meet drink minimums at the same old clubs. So most of our shows are BYOB, and designed to evoke the feeling of a house party. Every show is completely unique, with different lineups of comedians in secret locations across the city. With over 200+ cities in on the joke, you never know where we'll pop up next!

I PURCHASED TICKETS, WHEN WILL I RECEIVE THE SECRET LOCATION?

The secret address and other show info will be emailed to you by 8am on the day of the show.

How long do shows last?

Shows are usually 70-90 minutes with up to 5-7 different comedians.
