Harold Night at Upright Citizen’s Brigade
Yes, the night is named after this guy
Upright Citizen’s Brigade Theatre is by far the best comedy club in NYC. It kinda looks like a garage, so you don’t feel like some dude in an ill-fitting jacket is going to yell at you for not reaching the drink minimum. But more importantly, every show at UCB is freaking hilarious. I’ve never been to a show where I don’t have at least one uncontrollable laughing fit. Especially every Tuesday at Harold Night.
Harold Night is when some of their house improve teams perform. Each team takes a suggestion from the audience, and then does a series of improve scenes inspired by it. In a given night the subject matter will vary from mountain climbing to cantelopes to diamonds. And there’s always a good balance of inappropriate, punny, pop culture based and just plan painfully witty jokes. It will be the best $5 you spend on a Tuesday.
