DO YOU SERVE FOOD AND DRINKS? - All Food and Drink is served by The Willow Tree Restaurant which is an authentic Chinese restaurant and has been here for over 30 years. You can have food and drink before and/or during the show. Since it is a separate entity and not part of the club you get a much better value for your money than you will at other comedy venues.
DO YOU HAVE A TWO DRINK MINIMUM? - We do not have a “strict” two drink minimum (some clubs charge you if you don’t comply). We have a “suggested” two item minimum which means any combination of food and drink (some clubs require two drinks no matter how much food you order). However, in order to keep our ticket prices low we need you to buy something. Two items or more would be great, but if you only buy one we’re not going to charge you extra.
WHEN DO THE SHOWROOM DOORS OPEN? The doors open 30 minutes prior to show time.
HOW CAN I RESERVE SEATS FOR THE SHOW? There are two ways to reserve seats. If no reserved seating options are used then seating is on a first come first served basis.
Reserved Seating Option #1 - Guests dining before the show at The Willow Tree Restaurant can reserve their seats. When you check in with the host at The Willow Tree let them know that you are going to the show. You will then be able to reserve your seats in the showroom. You must arrive no later at least 90 minutes prior to show time.
Reserved Seating Option #2 - We are happy to reserve seats for groups of 10 or more.
SOMEONE TOLD ME YOU DO FUNDRAISERS. HOW DOES THAT WORK? - We are happy to help non profit groups, youth leagues, religious organizations etc… raise money for their cause. Our FUNdraiser program is very simple and easy to administer. We set up an evening(s) for your FUNdraiser, you sell tickets to the event and get anywhere from 50 to 70% of the ticket sales! Unlike other comedy venues the show will be private with no outside sales.
IS THERE SOMEONE I CAN SPEAK WITH ABOUT ANY QUESTIONS I MAY HAVE ON YOUR SHOWS OR PRIVATE EVENTS? Just call our office at (925)264-4413 or e-mail info@bunjoscomedy.com and we'll be happy to answer any questions that you may have.
WHERE ARE YOU LOCATED? - Our address is 6513 Regional St in Dublin, CA. We are located inside The Willow Tree Restaurant which is next door to The Outback Steakhouse.
HOW ARE YOU DIFFERENT THAN OTHER COMEDY VENUES IN THE AREA? - There are a few things that we feel makes us different than most other comedy venues:
Size - Our room only seats up to 90 people, while other clubs seat 200, 300, 400 or more. The advantage to you is that every seat is a good one and you are in a small, intimate environment which is a great way to see stand up comedy.
Comedians - While we occasionally book National Comedians, our main focus is on booking Local and Regional comedians. These comics play all the bigger comedy clubs in the area and many of them have been on HBO, Showtime, Comedy Central, Late Night TV and more. They are just as funny, if not funnier, than the bigger name comedians. The advantage to you is that we can keep our ticket prices lower without sacrificing entertainment value.
Ticket Prices - Friday and Saturday night our tickets range from $10 to $15, while other comedy venues can be $20, $30, $40 or more. Weekday nights can be as low as $5 and we even have FREE shows as well.
Ticket Fees - Not only are our ticket fees lower than other clubs, but we give you a credit towards future ticket purchases in the amount of your ticket fees. No other club that we know of does that!
Refunds - If you purchase tickets in advance and you or someone in your party cannot make the show, we will give you a credit in the amount of the ticket price towards a future show. The only exception will be if the show is sold out.
DO YOU HAVE A MINIMUM AGE REQUIREMENT? - We don’t have a strict minimum age requirement, but anyone under 18 must be accompanied by a parent or guardian. We do suggest no younger then 16 unless it is designated as a “Family Friendly” show.
DO YOUR COMEDIANS USE A LOT OF PROFANITY? - One problem with comedy is that language content is very subjective. What we can tell you is that we try to book comedians that are funny without having to say the “F” word in every other sentence. That doesn’t mean that it will never be said or that there will not be adult subject matter in our shows. However, our ultimate goal is to make you laugh with good, smart comedy that is not just a bunch of foul language.
From time to time we do book specific shows that are marked as “Family Friendly” which will mean no cussing or other offensive material.
