Know your audience

Set up the room for laughs
Comedy works best with a mic, light on the comic, guests seated facing the stage and no dinner service during the set. Schedule it after the meal.
Consider customizing
Many corporate comics add material about your company or industry. Share a short brief a few weeks before the event.

A host plus one or two comics for a full evening program.
