*We understand and allow for performers to say whatever they wish onstage in the pursuit of making the audience laugh. Our performers are Comedians, who will use any language necessary to make the audience laugh, as is the nature of the craft.

Comedy is subjective, and while we understand that an audience member may be offended by the material in a Comedian’s act, we also understand that a Comedian’s intent is to make the audience laugh, and not to offend any individual or group within the audience. A comedy club is a place where comedians can hone their craft, and we facilitate allowances for a comedian’s material to fail so they can learn and improve.

However, if an audience member has any issue with material from an act performing at the club, you may contact us (anonymously if you wish) and we will pass on the feedback to the act, and will take note in regards booking them in the future.

The following behavior will not be tolerated in any capacity:

a) Any unwanted touching, force or interaction with someone's body. *

b) Any unwanted threats to touch, force or interact with someone's body.*

c) Any physical contact without someone's consent. *

d) Any violence against any person.

e) Any threats of violence against any person.

f) Any sexual comments that make the person uncomfortable or feel unsafe.

*On the night we aim to operate at capacity and we cannot guarantee that anyone will not come into contact with another person due to the confined space.

However, if anyone has made inappropriate contact without your consent, please let us know so it can be dealt with appropriately. Our venue enlists security on busy nights (as per any pub/club/venue) who will assist with dealing with harassers as necessary.

Mic Drop Comedy will not book acts who are known to harass, assault or bully others outside the venue.

We endeavor in as much as is possible to not continue to book or book in the future, performers who have been directly reported to us as engaging in the following behavior:

a) by any means including by use of phone or by any means online. This includes harassing another person by persistently following, watching, pestering, besetting, messaging or communicating with them through any means for example, direct messaging, bot accounts or voice messages.

b) Anyone who uses violence to or intimidates that other person or a member of their family.

c) Anyone who Injures or damages the property of any person.

e) Watches or visits the premises or other place where that other resides, works or carries on business, or happens to be, or the approach to such premises or place.
