Roth's Comedy Club

At Roth's, comedy isn’t just for the pros - it’s for the brave, the curious, and the “I reckon I’m funny after two wines” crowd.

Roth's Comedy Club: Amateur Hour is our open-mic night where absolutely anyone can step on stage and give stand-up a crack. First timers, bucket-listers, seasoned pub-storytellers, or comedians testing new material — this is the safest place in town to bomb gloriously or accidentally kill.

Expect a packed room, supportive laughs, and the kind of unpredictable energy that only happens when nobody knows what’s coming next.

A casual, welcoming open-mic comedy night designed for beginners and hobbyists, not polished touring acts. Think less “Netflix special”, more “mates at the bar but with a microphone”.

The goal:
create a stage where trying matters more than succeeding.

Sign-ups: via bluemountainscomedy@gmail.com (limited spots available)
Set length: 3–5 minutes each
MC: Marty Bright
Audience: Regular patrons, mates, and curious locals 

We encourage:

• First-ever stand-up attempts
• Storytelling
• One-liners
• Chaotic energy
• Nervous sweating

We discourage:

• Heckling
• Reading your entire Notes app for 10 minutes

Supportive, forgiving, and fun.
The audience is part of the experience,  people want you to do well, and even when you don’t… that’s half the entertainment.

Bombing here is a rite of passage, not a failure.

Because every great comedian started somewhere; usually in a room at a bar with a slightly too-bright spotlight and a crowd holding wine glasses.

We want to give Mudgee a stage:

• to try something new
• to be a little brave
• and to laugh at each other (kindly)
