Overview

Know what's never not funny? Funny stuff. It's pretty hard to go wrong if your aim is to get people laughing. It's only robots and Bob Katter who don't like laughing at things. Working on this premise, the good people at the Standard are preparing to host their inaugural monthly alternative comedy night. And they've called it Never Not Funny, because who doesn't enjoy a double negative?

Never Not Funny is the brainchild of Campfire Collective, who've organised comedy for Harvest and Peats Ridge Festivals as well as Late Night Library at Surry Hills Library. Promising to feature stand-up, theatre, sketch, music, performance art and anything else to make you giggle, the Standard is making an effort to muscle in as a serious contender on Sydney's comedy scene. And they swear never to stage bad impro, which is a blessed relief.

The first people to take the comedic stage at the Standard include Applespiel, Cameron Knight, Dave Jory, Ben Ellwood, Nick Capper, Ben Jenkins and more. The lineup will be different every month, so check in with the Standard website.
