I’m not writing this review for customers as much as I am for the venue. I’ve been a long time stand up ny fan. I go to comedy shows all over the city but stand up ny has been my “home” club. During covid I was delighted by the outdoor shows and went multiple times. Lately I’ve been surprised how awful the talent has been. The shows are so cringe and people are laughing out of pity. It feels like they can’t fill the time slots so they just get any volunteers who want a break. This happened in the beginning of the summer but I gave it another chance last weekend and there were 11 people in the audience. The show wasn’t tolerable but I stayed out of respect. I don’t know why the club has gone from amazing to this. I know they fill the venue when it’s a “special” guest but for their daily/ weekly shows they can’t continue like this. I want to see the club thrive and come back to its “glory” days so I’ll keep supporting but it’s truly embarrassing to watch their shows lately. Good luck!
