WHY IT'S A PICK:
Because three years of this whimsically named show in a weird venue deserves your attention! And check this line up! Packed with killer comics including the delightful Josh Gondelman and the whip-smart Shalewa Sharpe. ABOUT THE SHOW - FROM THE PRODUCER We've made it! Three years of a terribly-named comedy show in a confusingly-named venue that takes on a street that sometimes has a trash can fire or a hardcore rave across the street. We started the show in 2013 and have put audiences through some wild shows and with this lineup of guests, we're sure to have another night of belly-laughs, good times and SUDDEN TERROR.
Plus, anybody that knows Macaulay Culkin, please tell him to come to the show. He was just at Shea. He knows! Just come, Macaulay. We'll change the name to whatever you want.
