    Frequently Asked Questions

    Common Questions from Bar and Restaurant Owners

    Have More Questions? Contact Us!

    Do I need to be a comedian to run this game successfully?

    Response

    No. We’ve built Stage Time Trivia for comedians, but it’s also for anyone with an outgoing personality that is comfortable speaking in front of an audience.

    How long does each game of trivia run for?

    Response

    Every game is designed to run between 1.5 and 2 hours, approximately the same length as a live comedy show.

    Couldn't I just do my own trivia night and write my own questions and material?

    Response

    You could, and plenty of people do, write and run their own trivia nights. However, it can take several hours of work to write and build your own trivia and not everyone has that kind of time or desire. Stage Time Trivia does all of the work for you, allowing you to just show up and host a fun night of trivia without having to worry about the content. Each week’s game is written and compiled creatively by professional comedians and all of our content is fact checked and accurate.

    Do I have to subscribe to your service?

    Response

    No – But You Should!

    Stage Time Trivia is designed for weekly trivia nights and provides a fresh, topical trivia each and every week.

    We also offer single downloads and individual themed downloads for one night events.

    See what our customers and comedians have to say about Stage Time Trivia.

    • I want to thank you so much for this wonderful trivia game. It packed out my restaurant every Wednesday. Me, my staff and customers genuinely loved playing it every week.

    • If you’ve been wanting to set up a trivia night, but you don’t have the time or know-how to make it entertaining, they take care of all of that for you!

    • Writing trivia questions was the most exhausting part of my week!

      I wanted to run a trivia game that was distinctively different from others in the area and I also wanted my Sunday nights back to spend time with my family. After looking at a few different products, I decided to do a test-run of Stage Time Trivia at one of the bars where I host regularly. It was a hit!

      Stage Time Trivia has been a great partner in my business!

    • Somehow, all the trivia questions I write are about Star Wars and Duran Duran, which makes sense, I guess, because they’re awesome.

      That’s where Stage Time comes in: With an amazing variety of interesting questions & clever, entertaining games, the gang at Stagetime makes sure my contestants are never bored, always laughing, and (most important to my clients) thirsty!

      And all for a hundred bucks a month.It’s totally worth it.

    • Phil and Will have pioneered a fabulous concept with Stage Time Trivia. It’s more than just reading questions and answers and you get scores. It’s a brand new trivia experience every week. Will and Phil are FUNNY, funny guys who have been hosting these trivia nights throughout the area for years. People come back over and over to have a blast with friends and show off their smarts

    • Stage Time Trivia makes hosting trivia easy, fun, and less stressful! As a host myself, I always turn to Stage Time when I’m low on material or just need some fresh rounds, content, and questions! Reliable, fast, and so easy to work with.”

    • I love Phil!
      He’s hilarious, a great guy and a wonderful friend. I had a ton of fun working with him when I co-hosted Stage Time Trivia night. It was a hoot! I will do it again, and again, and again, and again. And then when I’m done I’ll do it again more.
