Independent producers are where Brooklyn comedy actually gets interesting, because a crew booking its own room picks comics on taste rather than club rotation. SHUTCHOASSUP! hands this edition to Gandhy Beauvil and Ryan Roman, splitting a Union Hall basement bill between two co-headliners instead of stacking six short spots. If you like a show where each comic gets enough runway to build something, take the middle slot over the late one.
What to expect
Doors open a half hour early into Union Hall's downstairs performance space. Two comics carry the bulk of the night under the producers' hosting, so sets run longer than a typical club showcase turn. The upstairs bar and bocce courts are open before and after.
Good to know
- Union Hall is at 702 Union Street in Park Slope, a block from the R at Union Street
- This is a 21-and-over room
- The middle of three comedy shows Union Hall runs the same night, so the room is not yet at late-night pitch
- Two co-headliners means longer sets than a six-comic showcase
- Downstairs performance space; bocce and the fireplace are upstairs
