What does it take to put together five minutes of quality stand-up material? Harry and Jacob’s second topic covers the club set, or tight five, that is the bread-and-butter of most stand up comedians. Having recently been working on his routine, Harry gives insights into the writing and honing process that goes into creating a bulletproof, and authentic, five minutes of stand-up.
The pair also provide a bit of context as to their roles at The Gaffe Comedy Club, and what they are working on currently to improve the club in these early months.
