LOLyamorous: A Speed-Dating Comedy Show
James Regal • Semi-professional company
About James Regal
LOLyamorous is a speed-dating comedy show hosted by James Regal at Main Room, running 60 minutes. Pairs of strangers have a two-minute date on stage before being interviewed by comedians and a sex and relationships therapist about their love lives. A different comedian co-hosts each night, meaning no two shows are the same. Participation is voluntary, and the show welcomes all genders, orientations and ages over 18. Not single? No problem — you can watch from the crowd.
Why see this show?
A genuinely unpredictable night that blends comedy chat show and live matchmaking. The rotating co-host means each performance is fresh, and the mix of real strangers and a relationships therapist keeps it grounded.
