Complain that nothing ever happens in Townsville? Are you one of THOSE people that whinge about Brisbane getting all the fun with Townsville always forgotten? Yep, I’m one of those people too. I’m always at home playing Xbox, eating takeout and happy to sit at home, generally boring and would rather whine about nothing happening. Thats why Sage always helps out with the exciting stuff.
But something exciting has come to the Ville and it’s actually half decent. The Sit Down Comedy Club is one of Australia’s major producers of Stand Up Comedy. Established in 1992 it has finally reached Townsville and currently resides monthly at The Consortium Night Club Flinders Street. Sit Down Comedy Club or SDCC presents a new show every month with National and International performers that have been featured on Radio or Television. So far Consortium has had Lindsay Webb, Fiona McGary, Dave Williams and Paul Brasch. This month Consortium has the pleasure of presenting Dave Callan and Mark McConville.
SDCC circulates through all of Queensland and can be found up in the comfy and exclusive The Lounge which is the standout function room upstairs of Consortium. They provide full grub with Watermark food platters and full bar facilities to get loose with.
