Angelo Colina has spent years proving that Spanish-language stand-up in New York deserves its own rooms, not a translated slot on someone else's bill. Un Verano en NY is his summer hour at the club's East Twenty-Fourth Street space, a small brick room where the front row is arm's length from the mic. If you want comedy in Spanish from one of the scene's builders, close your weekend here.
What to expect
A compact club room with tables and a brick-wall stage, with drink service running through the show. The set is performed entirely in Spanish with no translation. Expect a crowd of regulars from the city's Spanish-language comedy circuit, which gives the room a scene-night feel rather than a tourist one.
Good to know
- Take the 6 to 23rd St; the club is on East Twenty-Fourth Street near Second Avenue
- The performance is in Spanish with no translation provided
- The room is small, so booking ahead beats walking up
- Best for Spanish speakers and anyone exploring the city's bilingual comedy scene
- An early-evening finish leaves time for dinner in Kips Bay afterwards
