Comedy Connection - East Providence

So rude staff! I'm sure they have their fair share of disturbing lookers, but why would the personal hate the good-behaved people who have just come to see a show?

We had a TERRIBLE experience at this place last night. We went with friends to see a comedian named beecher that we were very excited and ended before we could lead him. Well, we're a group of 50 old grandparents. not at all. we paid $26 per person (a little expensive we thought) and sat behind the introductory table (not very good sitting at all.) they gave an announcement at the beginning of the show that there was no hecking allowed that we thought was unusual, but since we would never do that, we just quenched it. the first comic came out and began his act by saying he had gone from his job there and asked the public what we...read more

Solches unhöfliches Personal! Ich bin sicher, dass sie ihren fairen Anteil an störenden Publikumsmitgliedern haben, aber warum sollte das Personal die gut benehmen, die gerade kamen, um eine Show anzusehen? Gute Möglichkeit, Kunden zu verlieren!

We had a TERRIBLE experience at this venue last night. We went with friends to see a comedian named Beecher that we are very excited about, and ended up leaving before we got to see him perform. Now mind you, we are a group of 50+ aged grandparents. Not rowdy at ALL. We paid $26 per person (a little pricey we thought) and got seated behind the entrance desk (Not very good seats at all). They made an announcement at the beginning of the show there was "no heckling" allowed, which we thought was unusual, but since we would never do that, we just shrugged it off. First comedian came out and started his act off by saying he had walked there from his job, and asked the audience what we thought his job was. Several people called out answers, but the bouncer came to us (as we were sitting right behind him), and told us we were not allowed to call out anything. We were stunned. We are far from rude audience members, and were quite put out by this. Then in the middle of the 3rd comedian's act, the waitress asked us to close out our bill, as she was leaving. And note, the drinks were very expensive. Again....we were stunned and were trying to figure out what was going on, when the bouncer, a heavy black man with his security badge hanging around his neck like he thought he was a cop, turned around again to tell us "there was no table chatter allowed". Well, that was enough for us to ask for a manager. We got nothing but arguments when we told this young skinny red-headed "manager" that we were dissatisfied with the way we had been treated. He had no intention of trying to settle the situation, but was quite willing to let us leave angry and unsatisfied. The bouncer and manager stood there, both with their arms crossed, and argued with us about everything were unhappy about. We have never witnessed such disregard for paying customers. AND to top it off, we never got to see the comedian we had just spent all that money to see. Needless to say, we will never go back to this venue and will most certainly spread the word at how badly we were treated.
