Comedy in the Dark

Selling a show as ‘comedy in the dark’? Make sure the lights go out completely in the venue. It’s interesting to see well-known comics pitched out of their comfort zones (Shappi Khorsandi discovering how much of her routine was based on facial comedy; the ever-excellent Jon Richardson dropping pre-prepared material altogether to play games), but in the half-light, we could still see them.
