What is 'Get Your Geek On'?
It's a comedy gameshow showcase of mixed bill line up acts competing with each other and against the audience to find the biggest nerd in the room! Win prizes! And smugness!

We’ve got your fandom covered! Battle it out alongside your fellow audience members to determine who holds the most useless knowledge: the crowd, or the comics? Hosted by uber-nerd Juliette Burton ('A huge nerd; a safe space. Simply marvellous.' ***** StarburstMagazine.com) and supported by her geekiest friends! A fun-filled, fanatical comedy hour!
