What you can expect
60-75min show that will be 10-15min of an opening act (brought and paid by James) then James Headlining and closing the show. The opener will be professional and be able to do any kind of announcements you need.
This will not be a 100% clean show but it will not be horribly filthy. If requested James will avoid any political jokes.

Proper sound and lighting and staging can drastically change a comedy show.
There should be a sound system with a microphone (corded mic is preferred over a wireless mic)
the stage area/ place the comedian will stand should be light and the rest of the room should be dark or dim.
there shouldn't be any TV's or music playing during the show.
PA system with (preferably) corded microphone
chair or stool for comedians drinks/ phone/ etc
