To ensure the best comedy experience, here are a few key elements that help Ryan deliver an unforgettable show:

Lighting: A darkened crowd helps create the right atmosphere, allowing the audience to relax and stay fully engaged with the performance. Bright lights should be focused on the stage to keep the performer visible and highlight expressions and movement.

Sound: A high-quality microphone with a reliable sound system is essential for clarity and timing. A wired or wireless handheld mic works best to give Ryan the freedom to move around and interact naturally with the audience.

Stage Setup: The ideal stage is set close to the audience. This proximity helps build rapport, enhance energy, and keep the interaction personal. Smaller, intimate setups tend to create the best connection and atmosphere.

Flexibility: If any of these elements are challenging to provide, Ryan is adaptable and willing to work with event organizers to find the best possible solution for your space and budget.

These details are designed to create the optimal conditions for a successful and engaging comedy show—but rest assured, Ryan can still bring the laughs under a variety of circumstances.
