⚠️General Etiquette/ house rules
No heckling/ shouting out stuff. Our performers have travelled all over the country tirelessly working on their acts. They really want you to have a good time at the show. With this in mind please do not make their job difficult by heckling/shouting out, chatting with your friends or being disruptive in any way. We reserve the right to ask you to leave should you be deemed a nuisance to the enjoyment of the show.
Being on your phone is rude, so turn your phone off. Allow yourself to enjoy the comedy.📵
During the show please stay seated. Don't keep getting up and down to go to the bar or you will spoil the show for others. There are plenty of breaks to buy drinks.
When arriving and leaving the venue please be quiet so as not to bother the neighbours.
In essence, be nice, don’t be a jerk, sit back and let them entertain you!😁
🎫Have a ticket but can’t attend?
Please let us know as soon as possible. Due to limited capacity others may want your seat. (Tickets are non-refundable and non-transferable.) You can let us know via our Facebook page or by emailing info AT standanddelivercomedy.com
🪑Seating Arrangements
A ticket guarantees you a seat but seats are not allotted. Seats are assigned on a first come first serve basis. If you wish to sit with your friends please arrive together and on time.
Please let the staff seat you.

This event is outdoors and therefore very well ventilated.

You are no longer legally required to wear a face covering 😷anywhere in the pub but, of course, you can do so if you wish.

Although social distancing is no longer legally required, please be respectful of any fellow audience members who may wish to maintain physical distance.
☁️Weather
This is an outdoor event. British weather is nuts so we recommend being preparing for everything! Multiple layers, waterproofs and sun cream may be wise.
