With over 200 comics signing up each week, it takes a while to get on. Comics with the most accumulated sign ups will be selected each week. After selection, your sign up counter restarts at zero.

We have a massive number of comics wanting to perform on this stage - usually there are 250 sign ups each week with a database of 600+ comics. It takes a while to get on stage - upwards to 15 - 17 sign ups. If you're patient and sign up each week that you are available to perform, eventually you will get on.

Each week, the following week’s show will be made available to sign up through the calendar. If you are available to perform, click on the show and sign up. If you are unable to perform, please do not sign up.

If selected to perform, you will receive an email notifying you one week prior to the show. If not selected, please continue signing up. Each sign up is logged, tracked, and totaled. Selection is based on who has signed up the most and gone the longest without performing. Selection is at the discretion of the New Talent Night Coordinators.

There are a lot of rules and guidelines behind New Talent Night. Please visit the Rules page for more information related to the evening's show.

Do not sign up if you are not available to perform. Play it safe. No sense in being risky and missing out on your call up.

Generally, it takes 8 to 10 weeks to get on for your first time. If you’re patient and sign up each week, eventually you will get on. All first timers get a two-minute set to show us what they can do.

If you don’t sign up for one week, you do not start over. Your sign ups accumulate and are tallied for each time you sign up to a show. After you perform, your sign-up count goes back to zero.

If you signed up through the website, you will receive an email one week before the performance - usually the Wednesday prior to the Tuesday show. Your name will be on the list if you made the show line-up.

If you signed up on the standby list, you will find out when we post the list in the Holding Tank, usually 15 minutes prior to the show.

The Holding Tank is at the bottom of the stairs directly to the right before arriving at the podium, behind the Yondr phone check.

We place a stand-by list at the upstairs bar every show. Stand-by is placed by 6:30PM and taken down at 7PM. Stand-by is used to fill in any gaps we have in the show from folks who drop out suddenly or any open spots on the evening's show.

All comics are encouraged to sign up on stand-by every night, and stand-by is the primary method for out of state comics to get on the night's list. Comics find out if they made the list off the stand-by list when the show's list is posted at approximately 7:15PM in the Holding Tank.

The Holding Tank is at the bottom of the stairs directly to the right before arriving at the podium, behind the Yondr phone check.

If you are visiting Denver and looking to perform, please sign up on the stand-by list. We place a stand-by list at the upstairs bar every show. Stand-by is placed by 6:30PM and taken down at 7:00PM.

You will find out if you made the list when the list is posted in the Holding Tank.
