A live comedy room in Osceola, Arkansas. The marquee shows who is on stage next with a live seat count, tickets sell in the app, the full lineup goes up the day a comedian is booked, and the bar and kitchen menu stays current between shows.

Circle V Lounge is live on the web today, running the club's real lineup, menu and ticket sales. Open it and see who is on stage next.
Open Circle V Lounge →A comedy room runs on more than the ticket. Who is on next, how many seats are left, what is on the menu, what time doors open, the four photos of the inside, and the email list that fills the slow Wednesdays. None of that lives on a ticketing site.
Benard wanted the front of house in one place, under his own name, where the count the door sees is the count the buyer saw. His rule: "I don't want to sell what I don't have." And when a night is off sale, the page should still collect the email, because the date is worth more than the sale.
The ask: the marquee, the tickets, the lineup, the menu and the list, one app.
On stage next, with the date, doors and show time, the price and a live seat count. It is the first thing anyone sees.
Tables for one, two and four, a party size, and a count that is the room minus every ticket that exists, comps included.
Every date goes up the day it is booked, with the bill, the headliner, the feature and the host.
The bar and kitchen menu, the hours, directions, and an email box that stands where the buy button was when a night is off sale.
There is one number. The room minus every ticket that exists, comps included, shown on the marquee, the lineup tile, the show page and the door.
And when a night is not on sale yet, the seat count disappears and one thing takes its place: an email box that knows which show the person wanted. A closed window is never a dead end.
