Eugene Mirman Comedy Festival (Sep 26-29, 2013)
Hey folks, the 6th Annual Eugene Mirman Comedy Festival starts tonight (Sep 26) and runs through the Sunday at The Bell House and Union Hall.
The EUGENE MIRMAN COMEDY FESTIVAL announces another amazing line up of comedy shows for its 6th annual Brooklyn-based festival. Featuring expert curator and comedy host extraordinaire Eugene Mirman and an all-star cast of comedians, actors, musicans and super surprise guests, the EMCF has been called “the best ironic-comedy-festival-but-also-real-comedy-festival known to man” (HuffingtonPost) and “a fall highlight in the local comedy scene” (Time Out New York). EMCF 2013 sees the return of popular shows like StarTalk Live! and the legendary Invite Them Up and Pretty Good Friends. The festival is packed with amazing performers such as Kristen Schaal, Jim Gaffigan, Ira Glass, Wyatt Cenac, Jon Benjamin, Neil deGrasse Tyson, Michael Che, Kurt Braunohler, Leo Allen and many more!
For those of you who can’t make it to the comedy fest this weekend, or if Manhattan is more your thing, you can catch Eugene and friends at the Gramercy Theatre on Oct 22 for A NIGHT OF COMEDY, MUSIC AND OTHER AWESOME STUFF!! to benefit. The evening’s featured performers will include Eugene Mirman, Todd Barry, Wyatt Cenac, Janeane Garofalo, Judah Friedlander and Rhett Miller of the Old 97s.
