Comedy Village NYC, located at 352 West 44th Street in Times Square, is set to host two special Pride Month comedy events this June, offering audiences a blend of laughter, identity, and community in the heart of Manhattan. The shows, "People Be Gay... and Hilarious!" on Wednesday, June 24 at 8 PM and "Celebrate Pride Feat" on Thursday, June 25 at 8 PM, will feature a lineup of standout comedians including Harrison Greenbaum, Jaye McBride, Akeem Woods, Paula J. Leon, and Oscar Aydin.
These events aim to highlight the intersection of comedy and culture during Pride Month. "New York City has always been a place where comedy, culture, and identity meet," said a Comedy Village representative. "Pride Month is the perfect time to bring people together for a night of big laughs, great energy, and unforgettable live entertainment in Times Square." The venue, steps from Broadway and the Theater District, continues to grow as a destination for live stand-up comedy, nightlife, and group outings.
The lineup features diverse comedic talents. Harrison Greenbaum, known for his sharp writing and fast-paced delivery, has appeared on America's Got Talent, Conan, and Last Comic Standing. Jaye McBride, a trailblazing transgender comedian, was the first openly transgender American comedian to perform at Madison Square Garden and was named to Vulture's "Comedians You Should and Will Know" list in 2022. Akeem Woods brings charisma and rhythm, while Oscar Aydin adds a bold stage presence, ensuring a high-energy night for audiences.
The two-night celebration is designed for locals, tourists, LGBTQ+ audiences, and allies, offering live stand-up comedy, surprise moments, drinks, and food. Comedy Village's Pride shows underscore its role as a Times Square comedy club supporting diverse voices. For tickets and more information, visit ComedyVillage.com.
