When I met Mai last week, she told me about the Upright Citizen's Brigade, a comedy place where a lot of post-grads go. The comedy is high quality and often done by people who are famous or will become famous. It's definitely the funniest comedy I've seen in New York, and it's not even expensive.
It was an improv group called Reuben Williams. It starred Eugene Cordero, Porter Mason, Ben Rodgers, Eric Scott, and Kate Spencer. The first act was based on what someone in the audience called out: wet naps. So they went back and forth between bathroom jokes, a BBQ, and babies. In the second half, they got a volunteer to tell them about their normal day and the weirdest thing that happened to them this week. Then all their skits in part 2 were inspired by that conversation.
Very funny stuff. Very talented people.
