COMEDY GONG SHOW: VOTE COMEDIANS OFF THE STAGE - 1 Winner 🥇

**WHAT IS IT?**

For the first time in Lisbon, Selva Comedy Café presents an interactive show where you decide who wins. 🙋‍♀️🙋‍♂️

Yes, this is a live **competition**.

And if you've never seen a Gong Show, fair warning: it's merciless 😮‍💨

* Each comedian gets 30 seconds before judges (audience members) can raise a red card ❌
* Each card raise triggers a bell
* 3 red cards = you're out 👋

No questions asked, no time to finish your joke.

To **survive** and advance, comedians must complete 3 full minutes onstage with maximum **2 red cards**. If they survive, they move to the next round

In round 2, we repeat, and the final winner is chosen by audience vote from the survivors. 👏

**WHY IS IT FUN?**

First off all, who doesn’t like to watch people struggle?
(Under safe circumstances 😂)

This show can be very **stressful** for comedians, because they are trying to convince you that they’re worth it.

And that's a challenge when your parents have made it clear that you aren't. 😮‍💨

But, they’re all here voluntarily and that will give us memorable moments and a night full of laughter.

The good thing is that, in the end, we all go home being better comedians, better friends, and more empathetic people (except the judges, **we need you to be critical**).

Additionally, judges are rotated frequently so **you!** get a chance of being a judge (if you want).

You will see about 15 different comedians competing for the prize, which means there will be plenty of opportunities.

**Do you have the guts to vote people out?**

\*PS: the prize for the winning comedian will be announced at the start of the event.

**WHERE IS IT?**
This show will take place at the lovely Selva Comedy Café in Lisbon, in the neighborhood of Alcântara, a cozy space for stand up comedy and other select-crowd, intimate type of shows, which is easily accessible by public transport (tram, bus).
