Jake is the best. You should follow him.
I have a new tape of my stand-up! Thanks to the Creek and the Cave! You should donate money to them.
Every New Comic’s First Set at an Open Mic
This is my first time trying stand-up.
[APPLAUSE BREAK]
If it’s anything like my first time having sex, it will be awkward.
So I masturbate a lot…
Every New Comic’s Second Set at an Open Mic
This is my second time doing stand-up.
[HOLDS FOR APPLAUSE BREAK. IT DOESN’T HAPPEN]
My first time was a lot like having sex. It was awkward and I cried. Hopefully this time goes better.
So I have a girlfriend. It’s so hard to masturbate with her always around!
Nick Turner writes about what the Creek means to New York comedians:
I perform maybe a quarter of all of my NY stand up sets at The Creek. Way more than on any other stage, I have learned how to be a comedian at The Creek. No other full time comedy venue allows the freedom and the stage time together that this venue provides.
There’s are roughly 10 open mics a week on two stages. There is a podcast network with roughly a dozen podcasts with tens of thousands of listeners. there are 20 independently produced comedy shows a week. Stand Up, Sketch, Improv, Short Films, Plays, Music, and any other relevant kind of comedy that exists is showcased here. If you look closely you can see The Creek in the background of dozens of comedy shorts made by people who know that whatever idea they can conceive, it can be realized within these walls…
I was going to write a post on this subject, but Nick says it better. If you support comedy in New York City, support the Creek.
This is important. This is very important.
The Creek is the closest thing I have to a home in New York comedy. I truly believe it’s the place the next generation of comedians in New York are going to come from. Please donate and help!
