Comedy Village NYC, located at 352 West 44th Street in Times Square, is set to host two special Pride Month comedy events: "People Be Gay... and Hilarious!" on Wednesday, June 24 at 8 PM and "Celebrate Pride Feat" on Thursday, June 25 at 8 PM. The shows aim to celebrate laughter, identity, and community through live stand-up comedy in the heart of Midtown Manhattan.
The lineup includes comedians Harrison Greenbaum, Jaye McBride, Akeem Woods, Paula J. Leon, and Oscar Aydin, offering audiences a high-energy night of entertainment. Comedy Village, known for its proximity to Broadway and the Theater District, has become a growing destination for live comedy, nightlife, group outings, and date nights.
"These shows are about celebrating Pride with laughter, visibility, and community," said a Comedy Village representative. "New York City has always been a place where comedy, culture, and identity meet. Pride Month is the perfect time to bring people together for a night of big laughs, great energy, and unforgettable live entertainment in Times Square."
Harrison Greenbaum brings sharp writing and fast-paced delivery, having performed on America's Got Talent, Conan, and Last Comic Standing. Jaye McBride, a trailblazing transgender comedian, was the first openly transgender American comedian to perform at Madison Square Garden and was named to Vulture's "Comedians You Should and Will Know" list in 2022. Akeem Woods adds charisma and rhythm, while Oscar Aydin contributes a bold stage presence. Together, they create a lineup that is both celebratory and inclusive.
The two-night event is designed for locals, tourists, LGBTQ+ audiences, allies, and Broadway visitors. Guests can expect live stand-up comedy, surprise moments, drinks, and food, with Comedy Village's signature slogan: "You never know who'll stop by." The shows highlight the venue's role as a Times Square comedy club supporting diverse voices and NYC's vibrant stand-up scene.
