Should VIP seat holders come early? Does the ticket price include a meet and greet?

I believe the comedians pick and chose the options. VIP could be the only option, I would.check with the venue and performer

I didn't get VIP tickets and was able to meet the comedian after the show. It might depend on who you want to see and how important it is to you.

I didn't buy a VIP ticket but we still got a chance to meet the comedian after the show.
