History of Comedy Clubs in NYC<\/h2>\r\n

There is no date that pin-points the birth of comedy culture in New York; however, it is easy to say that modern stand-up comedy had emerged with the subversive voices of Greenwich Village<\/a> in the 1950s. If you are familiar with the TV show, The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel, <\/em>it depicts this very time period perfectly.<\/p>\r\n

Before that a multitude of comedians filled the New York stage of vaudeville, a genre of theater that based its\u2019 plot around comedic situations. Some big names at the time were the Marx Brothers, the Three Stooges, and Eddie Cantor. Comedians were emerging left and right implementing their own style as they went. Alongside the loud and proud voices of Greenwich Village would be comedians to accompany the poetry and jazz acts that captured the eager ears of Manhattan residents. As time went on, new genres of comedy were coming to light at a rapid pace. For example, Saturday Night Live<\/em> and Seinfeld <\/em>set the scene for the stand-up acts that would entertain New Yorkers and those visiting for years and years to come.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
