Bay Street Theater in Sag Harbor presents the return of All Star Stand-up Comedy on Thursday, January 28, at 8 PM on Bay Street’s website. This online comedy showcase marks All Star Comedy’s 11th season with the theater, and the first time that stand-up comedy will premiere at Bay Street since the theater space was closed in March 2020.
The return of All Star Comedy features comedians Chris Clarke, Brendan Sagalow, and Aiko Tanaka, and is hosted by New York-based comedian Joseph Vecsey, who founded the stand-up comedy showcase in 2010.
Vecsey himself has been selected as one of Comedy Central’s Comics To Watch, has toured with Adam Sandler, David Spade, and Rob Schneider, and has worked as co-producer on Sandler’s Netflix special, “100% Fresh.” He is also producer of Netflix’s “The Wrong Missy,” in which he stars.
Clarke is an energetic comic with a vivid imagination. He has cemented himself as one of the most enjoyable acts working today. He now tours the country with veteran comedian Rob Schneider. Besides stand-up Chris has a very popular YouTube channel, Csnacks, which has attracted over 40 million views.
Sagalow brings his naturally funny perspective. He has written for MTV’s “Joking Off.” He was the winner of the 2015 New York Comedy Club Comedy Competition, and was featured in The Rhode Island Comedy Festival, Skankfest NYC, and Red Clay Comedy Fest in Atlanta, Georgia. Sagalow can be heard every week on his podcast “Garbage Days.”
Tanaka has appeared in “Malcom & Eddie,” “The Man Show,” “My Wife and Kids,” and “Howard Stern.” She has also appeared in a handful of music videos — for Destiny’s Child, The Offspring, and Afroman — and feature-length films “The Fast and the Furious: Tokyo Drift,” “Finishing the Game,” among others. Recently she has done stand-up comedy and filmed for “Laughs on FOX,” and “Stand Up and Deliver” on Nuvo.
Tickets are on sale now for $20 and can be purchased online. This show is intended for mature audiences, ages 18 and up.
