Best Places to See Comedy in NYC

Long Island's Premiere Limousine Service
P: (631) 587-8500
 
New York City is arguably the comedy capital of the world. From stand-up performances in arenas that seat thousands to improv shows in small underground spots, there’s no shortage of comedy, seven nights a week.
 
Here are some of the best venues in NYC that are worth that two drink minimum.

Carolines - 1626 Broadway
An institution in the comedy scene for the past 30 years, Carolines has established itself as a leading destination for live entertainment by continuously presenting headliners and introducing new talent. Jerry Seinfeld, Jon Stewart and Jay Leno can credit Carolines with giving them their start in comedy. Home of the successful New York Comedy Festival, Carolines is the place to be to see some of the biggest (and funniest!) names in showbiz.
 
Upright Citizens Brigade Theatre - 307 W. 26th St. (Chelsea location)/153 East 3rd St. (East Village location)
While stand-up comedy is the traditional form that New Yorkers are used to, UCB is best known for improv and sketch. Started by Saturday Night Live alum, Amy Poehler and her funny friends, UCB theatre is the most intimate and gritty way to see big names and rising stars, up close and personal. At any given point, expect for a super famous star to pop into the underground theatre and hop on stage. The shows are cheap but the laughs are big!
 
Gotham Comedy Club - 208 West 23rd St.
You may already recognize the Gotham stage background from appearing in various television shows and movies. Since it’s doors opened in 1996, Gotham quickly made a name for itself, bringing big acts like Dave Chapelle, Lewis Black and Colin Quinn to the stage. This is one of the best places to see a show, as it’s swanky, yet intimate ambiance, provides the audience with the feel of being at a Broadway show.
 
Comedy Cellar - 130 West 3rd St.
Known as the comic’s club, the Comedy Cellar is a no-frills venue where comedians come to try out their new material. On any given night you might expect to see Dave Attell or Jim Norton hitting the stage to work out a new routine. Louis C.K. counts this club as his go-to spot, both in real life and on his hit show, Louie. If you’re planning on hitting this Greenwich Village hot spot on the weekends, don’t forget to make a reservation-- shows sell out quickly!
 
Before you get your laugh on, why not make a night of it? Plan some dinner and drinks prior to the show and let Dynasty Limo take care of your transportation needs. For information on availability or to make a reservation, contact us at 631-587-8500.
