Pick of the Day: Anna Seregina: Tour of Anna (in NYC) 6/17

May 24, 2023

While LA is treated to the comedic marvel that is one Anna Seregina, NYC hasn’t been so fortunate to see what a perfect blend of clowning and stand-up can be. So, it behooves us here at TCB to notify all of you in and around the five boroughs when Anna is in town, especially if she’s doing a very special solo evening at one of NYC’s hippest, most underground (even though it’s upstairs) venues.

Yep, Anna Seregina is coming to NYC next month to put on a Tour of Anna at Life World in Brooklyn on Sat. Jun. 17 at 8:30PM. Tickets are only $10 and the address is sent to you upon purchase of tickets (since this show is such the place to be that Saturday night). Go get your tickets right now right here.

Pick of the Day: Pop Show with Ziwe (in NYC) 6/23

May 22, 2023

irving plaza, nyc comedy, ziwe

Five months ago, Showtime and its parent company, Paramount, made the idiotic decision to end their groundbreaking late night talk/variety show, Ziwe, hosted by the iconic Ziwe. For our money, it was a shining beacon of hope for late night at a time when the world of late night is still unsure how it’s going to move forward, especially with a format that largely hasn’t changed in nearly 70 years.

Still, though Paramount is busy trying to figure what reality TV to shove down our throats during this WGA Strike, you can thankfully catch Ziwe do her live Pop Show with Ziwe in NYC at Irving Plaza this Summer. Come Fri., Jun. 23rd at 8PM, one better be in Union Square getting ready to line-up for this show.

Tickets are $48 and, somehow, still available. Go get them right now here before that becomes not the case.

Pick of the Day: Dan St. Germain Taping (in NYC) 6/1

As we’re in the thick of 2023, many a plans laid out for 2020 are now coming into fruition. That includes a bunch of folks’ solo shows that are Scotland-bound for the Edinburgh Fringe Festivals as well as plenty of tapings for specials and albums that had to be put on hold due to COVID-19.

NYC comedy’s Dan St. Germain had two delightful hours of comedy, “no real winners here” and “Bad at the Good Times”, out before the pandemic and 2020 seemed probably about a ripe time for a new one, perhaps an hour special. Well, we’ll just fast forward to here in 2023 because you’re well aware of what happened in the mean time. St. Germain’s seasoned, classical style stand-up with rollicking, punchline-filled commentary on the world around him is going to be captured in his first hour special next month at Old Man Hustle/BKLYN Comedy Club.

You’ve got two chances to catch St. Germain bring the heat on Thurs. Jun. 1st at 8PM or at the late show at 10PM. Tickets are $20 and you can (and should) go get them here.

Pick of the Day: Kevin McDonald Superstar (A Rock Opera) (in NYC) 8/31

News

The prospect of Kids in the Hall’s Kevin McDonald doing a new anything is definitely worth your time, attention, and money. The more elevated prospect of him doing a full on rock opera that’s based on “totally true events” should make it somehow more imperative for you to buy tickets and go to The Bell House on Thurs. Aug. 31st at 7PM.

Come this August, neither is just a fabricated scenario. Kevin McDonald and @ThisMyShowPresents will be premiering Kevin McDonald Superstar (A Rock Opera) at Brooklyn’s Bell House that’s all sourced from the life and times of Kevin McDonald. Joining him will be a treasure trove of NYC comedy including KITH’s Dave Foley, Dave Hill, Julie Klausner, Kevin McDonald, Jean Grae, and John Wlaysweski.

We’re pretty sure this is going to sell out way in advance, so go get your tickets for $30.57 a pop here right now.

News

comedy special, nyc comedy, stand up comedy, taping, tig notaro

Tig Notaro is taping a new special, which should be the only copy that you’d need to promote the two shows that she’s taping live at Brooklyn’s very own Kings Theatre.

In case you need a bit more:

Notaro has been an astounding singular voice in comedy as well as an inspiration and generation defining artist just from her impromptu album, Tig Notaro Live. Also, she’s taken on quite the on-camera career spanning Star Trek, fighting zombies in Vegas, and hosting her own talk show where she has no idea who her very famous guests are. That’s just a quick crash course in how marvelous Tig is as a comedian and performer.

Oh yeah, she also has the best bit using the stool in all of stand-up comedy.

So, do not miss the taping of her latest special, Hello Again, set for Sat. Jun. 10th at 7PM ET & 10PM ET at Kings Theatre. Tickets start at $60 and you can (and very much should) get them here.

Pick of the Day: Why Would You Ask Me That? with Martin Urbano (in NYC) 5/31

May 1, 2023

News

brooklyn, game show, littlefield, martin urbano, nyc comedy

Throughout quarantine, one Martin Urbano found that he had a knack for hosting offbeat, darkly comedic game shows. Who Wants $2.69? was born out of a need to do comedy virtually, but that was something outside of stand-up, Urbano’s usual bread and butter. The perfectly named game show found quite the fan base through streaming weekly on Chris Gethard’s virtual comedy community Planet Scum and even had some live shows a couple of years ago.

Urbano has gotten back into the thick of stand-up since everything has reopened, but that doesn’t mean he’s giving up his impeccable skills as a game show host with a cheeky title. He is doing yet another game show with ironically “problematic trivia” that has a grand prize of $69 called Why Would You Ask Me That? with Martin Urbano. It should be a rollicking night of awkward answers from NYC comedy’s finest including Ariel Elias, Brittany Carney, Chris Gethard, Kenice Mobley, Steven Castillo, and even someone from the crowd in attendance.

Why Would You Ask Me That? is set for Wed. May 31st at 8PM at Littlefield and tickets are $15.54. Best go get them here.

Last year, Kelly Bachman and Dylan Adler put one of the best works of musical comedy in recent memory with their live album Rape Victims Are Horny Too. It’s a truly astounding and groundbreaking work that is simultaneously so damn funny, but honest and powerful and respective to their own truths as sexual assault survivors.

With that in mind, getting to see Kelly and Dylan put the show up live is a must-see experience. Lucky for New Yorkers, Adler is back in NYC for all of May and will be putting on an exclusive evening of Rape Victims Are Horny Too up at one of NYC’s most venerable venues, Joe’s Pub on Tues.

Since the brilliant Jacqueline Novak has been performing her lauded and acclaimed solo show, Get On Your Knees, directed by the also brilliant John Early, years before the pandemic, it seems as though she has been doing the hysterical poesy of her hour long show about the sexual politics of blowjobs for at least a decade. We’ve had the expressed privilege of seeing it several forms in different venues and enjoyed the exclusive privilege of seeing it become the juggernaut of a solo show that it has around the world.

So, it only stands to reason that it should be shot as a special to be shown to even more folks, right?

Thankfully, that’s happening this Summer after what must be hundreds of performances at this point. Novak will be taping Get On Your Knees to cap off one final run of the show at Town Hall in NYC on Jun. 9th. There will be an early show at 7PM, which is already sold out, but you can still snag tickets for a 10PM show at $42 a pop right now (and we highly suggest not waiting).

While such comedy folks as Mitch Hedberg, Todd Glass, Nick Thune, and Bernie Mac have used musical accompaniment to punctuate and accentuate their jokes to great success, it’s strange that such a dynamic isn’t more common in stand-up comedy (other than that it’s difficult to tell jokes and play instrument at the same time or always have a musician or band accompany you wherever you go).

Thanks to the musically inclined comedians Two Tree Hill and Rose Kelso, NYC comedy is going to get a whole evening of what might be the classiest way to present stand-up comedy on what they’re ingeniously calling Don’t Stop! I’m About to Jazz. Having the ivories tickled during their sets will be a swanky line-up of Eric Rahill, Annabel Meschke, Sabina Meschke, Napoleon Emill, and Natasha Vaynblat.

So, break out the formal wear and get your tickets for Don’t Stop! I’m About to Jazz, coming to Union Hall on Tues. May 16th at 7:30PM. Tickets for such a ritzy affair are only $11.55 and you best go get them here.

Though the U.S. Government is ending the public health emergency due to COVID-19, that doesn’t mean that the public at large in the good ol’ U.S. of A is free and clear of health emergencies overall. There are so many folks stuck in debt accrued through needing medical treatment to live and not having the money upfront. It’s one of the truly awful things about the American healthcare system and, thankfully, there are organizations like RIP Medical Debt that allow for the generosity and benevolence of others pay for said medical debt.

chloe radcliffe, nyc comedy, solo show

Seeing the name Chloe Radcliffe on a bill or a line-up should be reason enough to make an outing for an evening of comedy. The whipsmart candor and charm of Radcliffe has made her into an undeniable NYC comedy scene staple. Also, the notion of seeing a solo show about cheating from the perspective of the repeat cheating offender has to, at the very least, make you do a double take.

Combined together will be Chloe doing her solo show wherein she talks through her seemingly insurmountable struggles as a serial monogamist who has cheated in almost every one of her relationships. Knowing Radcliffe, it’ll be thoroughly engrossing as it will be illuminating, funny, and definitely worth the price of admission.

Speaking of which, Chloe is putting up this solo show, aptly named CHEAT this Thurs. Apr. 6th and Fri. Apr. 7th at The Under St. Marks Theater at 7:30PM. Tickets are $18.07 and you can (and should) go buy them here.

There is so much care, vulnerability, originality, honesty, and, of course, damn good comedy that goes into an hour from New Jersey’s favorite son, Chris Gethard. One shouldn’t miss out on watching/listening to any hours of his comedy, but definitely one shouldn’t not miss the chance to attend a taping of any Gethard’s hours as it’ll undoubtedly make you feel all the feels and have you busting up at the same time.

NYC has such a chance this weekend with Chris laying down his latest special chronicling his experience as a father, which will undoubtedly be a more than welcome break from the giant swath of stand-up comedy from comedians that seemingly hate their kids. Even though we’d never have kids, we’d love to see Chris’ take on it.

brooklyn, dave ross, james austin johnson, neel ghosh, nyc comedy, stand up comedy, union hall

Over the last couple of years, whether you know it or not, NYC has gotten some true gems from the LA comedy scene. Namely, James Austin Johnson, Neel Ghosh, and Dave Ross have relocated to New York and spreading their honed comedy wares across the five boroughs. They all had their own respective, cherished comedy happenings that they built out in LA (Rod Stewart Live, Night Voyage, Good Heroin), but they’re set on making their mark in NYC (especially if they’re not already on SNL… yet).

So, these three hysterical LA-to-NYC transplants are banding together to make use of the fact that are way more night owls in New York and are setting up a weekly late night, Monday stand-up show at Brooklyn’s venerable comedy stage, Union Hall. What are they calling this 10PM Monday night comedy hang in Park Slope that’s probably equal parts chill and madcap fun? WAR. Perhaps, a perfect name?
