I beat the Blackout again! (In Greenwich, London)

What is the Blackout competition?
 
3 random members of the audience have each a card and can object to your comedy by raising it! If you get 3 cards, all lights go off and you have to leave the stage mid-routine!

Here I play it relatively safe, no controversial material, so I can win by getting to the 5 minute mark.

It is a good crowd, but the club also attracts many students from universities nearby. On this night, one comic was repeatedly heckled by a woman shouting about "genocide in Gaza" and "20-thousand children killed", just to give you an idea of the kind of people who go to comedy nights nowadays!

The weekly Blackout competition is hosted by Up The Creek comedy club in Greenwich, London, England.

Thank you very much for your support. Let's Make Comedy Great Again!
