House rules
  • Shows are free to attend: the producer rents the room and recoups the cost through donations; a suggested donation may be announced, but tickets may not be sold. source ↗
  • There is no bar: any drinks at a show are given away free, and nothing may be sold. source ↗
  • There is no staff or house technician: each show's team learns the tech in a walkthrough, resets the chairs, takes out the rubbish and leaves the theatre as it found it. source ↗
  • Bring your own microphone, stand or adaptor; the house lights and sound may not be changed. source ↗
  • The Clubhouse does not promote shows; producers get the word out themselves. source ↗
