There’s so much to say! But, wow, what an exciting year it’s been so far! Since opening on October 18th we’ve been non-stop boogying with shows, flowing beer and laughing audiences.
Some stats:
- 34 shows and 1 movie screening
- 1,179 tickets sold
- 6 sold out shows
- 3 visiting comedians (Hari Kondabolu, John Robertson and Will Hines)
Considering, after 3 months of being open, we haven’t had a single night where no one showed up, I think we’re doing pretty alright!
But there’s so much to improve and so much more excitement ahead. Starting in January, CCB will be standardizing it’s schedule, hyper focusing on show quality, offering classes and expanding our café and bar offerings.
What’s in store for 2016?
