TNL: Tuesday Night Live

When you go to a comedy show the general expectation for the night is a good chuckle, some thought-provoking material and a charismatic comedian with their own twisted perceptions on life. But what if you could have MORE? Tuesday Night Live (TNL) comedy at the Chippendale Hotel is a creative weekly event that welcomes budding comedians and the general public to sit back, relax and even join in.

No – it’s not like an open mic night. Yes – it IS stand-up comedy, but around the second half of the night things can get a little… conceptual.

Seizure Kaiser, event coordinator and comedian, says he has been playing around with quite a few ideas. For example, he along with other comedy panellists including Gary Eck, co-writer and co-director of Happy Feet 2, decided to create a podcast live in front of the audience where they fought over films. And Sean Michaels, ex-producer of NOVA 96.1, just this week performed his stand-up routine meant for the Melbourne comedy festival.

Coming up next week is (Jun 23) Raw Comedy finalists Andrew Wolfe, Jonas Holt and Paige Hally.

Every Tuesday from 7.30pm. The Chippendale Hotel, 87 Abercrombi St, Chippendale. $10.
