About this Event

Live comedy open mic night! Every week veterans and newbies alike try their hand at entertaining a live audience with jokes! Live at The Hi-tone in Memphis TN!

About the Comedy Open Mic Night:

The Comedy open mic night is an invigorating, surprising, and all around hilarious event created in October 2020 by Stand up Comedian : John Andrew Miller.

The show boasts a diverse and interesting line up each week that cracks smiles, shakes heads and causing uproarious laughter.

Purpose of the Comedy Open Mic Night:

The host: John Miller noticed the lack of options for serious stand up comedians and aspiring acts in the city of Memphis to practice their craft and explore topics in front of an engaging audience on a Tuesday night. Not to mention, Fans of stand up comedy get to enjoy the art in its rawest and sublime form.

The Comedy Open Mic Night Format:

The concept is easy: 18 Comics max are allowed to sign up.

Most comics get 5 minutes max; out of town Comics can ask the host for a 10 minutes slot if needed.

The Host will open the show with rules, reminders, promotions, and opening set.

Sign ups for performers : 7p

Showtime 8p-10p

Showtime FAQs:

How do sign up: Show up between 7p-8p and sign the list! The host has complete and total control of when the comics perform so...the spot you sign up for might not necessarily be the spot you get. Performers will be notified one minute before the end of their set to dismount from the stage.

  1. Can I ( an audience member) engage with the performer? - This is commonly called heckling if the comic doesn't interact first. Please don't heckle( shout or disturb the show) and be respectful to the performers.
  2. Is it Free? - The Show is free for performers and $10 for all audience members.
  3. How do I support the show? - Fans of the show can support at the door, donate Crypto ( ask the host how!), and keep on spreading the word about the Host and Memphis Comedy at large!
