The first time you perform in a comedy room that has high ceilings, don’t be surprised if it appears that you are getting less laughter than you usually get in the comedy clubs.
There’s a good reason for that.
You will find that most comedy clubs have low ceilings with acoustic tile. You will also note that there is usually very little sound absorbent material on the walls or floor (curtains and carpet). Because of this…
