Secret comedians, secret locations . . . and BYOB! “Don’t Tell Comedy” offers unique stand-up comedy shows in Seattle (and Tacoma). You know the date, time, and neighborhood when you buy tickets – then you get the delight of discovering the specific location at noon the day of the show! I’m intrigued! You know I’m a fan of comedy, so I’m so excited to see what unique venues this group chooses to host comedy shows in.

Also, how cool is it that the event is BYOB? No pressure to order expensive drinks (and no pressure to drink at all, if you’re not drinking)! “At Don’t Tell Comedy, we are redefining live comedy by bringing it to your backyard, sometimes quite literally! Venues range from backyards and living rooms, to local businesses, steam ships, and yoga studios. We’re removing the expensive drinks – it’s BYOB! Crack open your own beer and enjoy the best local and touring comedians – there are no transactions at a Don’t Tell Comedy show and that’s the way we want to keep it.”

This August, Seattle shows will be in Wallingford on August 17th and in South Lake Union on August 22nd!

Check out their website and sign up for their emails to hear upcoming shows. Have a cool venue? Check out their website for details on how to apply to be a host (the before and after photos are pretty cool of venues they’ve used in the past).

I’m planning on going to the August 22 show in South Lake Union (they mention it’s a “super special location”). FB event page here.
