Room 861 at Goodnights: Gerry & Georgia
Georgia Warder left the closet and a small town in West Virginia to pursue both comedy and tolerance. With a sharp work ethic and a sharper wit, Warder quickly became a regular at the Improv, was featured at the Asheville Comedy Festival (2025), and is a full-time touring comedian. She has opened for headliners such as Josh Johnson, Natasha Leggero, Joe Dombrowski, Rosebud Baker, Maddie Wiener, Rachel Scanlon, Mary Beth Barone, and Steve Hofstetter.
Gerry Potoka started stand-up comedy because being a public educator just isn’t quite entertaining enough. Transplanting from Richmond County, North Carolina, to Raleigh, Gerry’s personal experiences and perspectives offer a unique portrayal of his day-to-day life, career, thoughts, and feelings. Gerry has performed up and down the East Coast opening for comedians such as Josh Johnson, Joe Dombrowski, Zoltan Kaszas, Bo Johnson, Gaspare Randazzo, and others, in addition to occasionally hosting for “The Teachers Lounge” Comedy Tour. He was also a finalist for 2025's North Carolina’s Funniest Person and co-hosts the “How To Survive the Classroom” podcast with Andrea Forcum and Molly Dugan. Gerry’s comedy is guaranteed to make you chortle (that is a smart people word for “laugh”).
Management reserves the right to prevent customers from entering the facility who they deem disruptive or dangerous to other patrons.

A full breakout of your ticket will be shown during checkout. The service fees help cover the costs of putting on the show. They are shared between the various organizing parties, and may include a profit to them.

Please Note: Food and drinks purchased in the bar and lounge do not count towards the two-item minimum.
- General Admission seating is assigned on a first-come, first-sat basis as you enter the showroom. The earlier you arrive, the better your seats will be.

Please Note: We do not take seating requests and cannot guarantee seats in a specific location or that your party will have a table to themselves.
