    This is a solid spot for all kinds of live entertainment, mostly comedy shows. I've been here several times and don't have many complaints. They run a pretty smooth local entertainment establishment. The staff is always friendly and courteous. They never get lost, like many other places that are busy all the time. They know how to handle all the customers they have at one time. They are always smiling and never pushy about placing orders before the shows, which you have to do. The only gripe I have about this place is overpriced food. The food would be ok for the price if they had more quality options. The food tastes like they bought it out of the grocer's freezer, put a hefty price tag on it, and sell it to the patrons. There is a two item minimum that you have to order each time you come and check out a show. I normally just get wings and a soda because I HATE their fries!!! My 3 year old cousin can make better fries than that. So I just stick to what I know. Also, gratuity is added to each bill, so if you want to leave your wait staff more that's up to you, but they make pretty good either way it goes. If this place took the quality of their food up a notch, I wouldn't have a problem with the food. I give them a pass on the food because a lot of the times they offer free or discounted tickets to the shows. I don't think I ever paid full price if anything at a show here and I've been almost 10 times. I never have a problem with the entertainment!!! The shows are top notch!!! It seems like I'm here at least once a month lately. They bring some of the best comedians and entertainers around the country here and they surely put on one helluva show!!!

    This experience was ok ! We saw Jess hilarious who had a delayed show. Don't know what the reason was but it was over an hour wait which wasn't what I was expecting . Her acts before her was mediocre especially the white guy who was trying to be funny but came off racist with his comments . Jess was funny but it took to long for her to come out . The wait in the lobby was terrible as there was no air circulation and everyone was gathered around . Overall the house should have a better system with severs to accommodate the capacity of people because it is a bit of a wait for food and drinks .

    See all

    There really is SO much you need to know about this place they don't tell you on their web OR if…read moreyou call to ask questions. Primarily, that is this club offers the opportunity to enjoy a meal and bar beverages during the show. They did reference 'the food/drink' minimum but they don't tell what that means. Which is you must order food and drinks, two each per person. IF you order off the menu, the 'the minimum' sill applies. They give you the option of General Admission or Reserved Seating and there is about a $10 price difference but no advantage as far as your table location or proximity to the stage. When you reach the top of the stairs, check in with host desk, they scan your tix and seat you. You are not asked where you want to be seated, they put you where they want you, even if it's Reserved seating which is about $45.00. More than likely you'll be seated at a table with other people. They have an FAQ page which I highly recommend you read, otherwise you'll be blindsided and surprised but a lot of stuff. We went on a Friday and there was one show starting at 7p. They open the doors at 6p and then the host begins seating people as they enter. I noticed it's a fairly large 'L' shaped room so if you're seated at tables just as you enter, you'll be looking at the 'side' of the stage and you won't see the tables to the right but you will hear the people laughing. It's confusing because if you DON'T know the above and you want to have a meal before the show, you might think you NEED to dine in the downstairs restaurant/bar area. The difference is the menu in the Comedy club is somewhat limited though it is more than appetizers. Michelle had the chicken fajita nachos which were enormous. I had a wedge salad with grilled salmon which was very good. The service was outstanding and I never had to worry about the wait staff coming by with re-fills. We were there to see Leah Ruddick who was very funny. It turns out she was the initial performer at the first show. There were two comedians going on before Leah. The one dude who also acted as MC wearing a sparkly jacket made it clear right away he was gay. His ENTIRE routine was going into the details about 'gay life'. A lot of profanity and a lot of TMI. I didn't find it funny or entertaining learning about deviant behavior. The next act was a black lady named Kandy Kaine. Again, a lot of profanity. Turns out she is a 3rd grade special ed teacher in public schools. Her deal was talking about the challenges of her students and essentially making fun of them. There was also a bit where she asked if there were any Christians in he audience. A few raised their hand and she proceeded to ask they give her names of 'gangasta' bible characters. The first guy yells 'judas' and all her jokes were making fun of his betrayal of Jesus but Judas. Again, for me not funny or entertaining. I had seen several youtube clips of Leah before hand. She portrays a character 'the wealthy lady'. She files around the US in her 'PJ', private jet. She talks about her 13 ex husbands and her attraction to men with tiny fingers. You need to know that parking can be an issue. There is currently construction going on and there are detours, in addition there are multiple one-way streets. You must be intentional on what street you enter if you want to park in a garage. Otherwise there maybe random street parking available.

    I came out here for Steph Tolev a couple nights ago. Very small room, I was kind of surprised she…read morewasn't playing for a larger crowd. It was a nice intimate show with great food and drink though. You walk into Duckworths, and you have 4 completely different options. To the right is the big bar, to the left is restaurant seating, downstairs is the absolutely amazing cellar and then there is the comedy club upstairs. There's maybe like 15 tables? All were filled except for one when I was there. If you don't frequent comedy clubs, you should know some have some interesting rules that you need to know. They have a 2 drink/eat minimum per person here, I'm not sure what the fee is if you don't meet that. Because of them expecting that income, if you don't show up on time, they reserve the right to sell your table to someone else and I don't think you get a refund. I'm not sure about that. Our beers were cold, our drinks were good, and the food came out quickly and warm. We were there for the show though and that was phenomenal. I double I'll see her in such a small venue again.
