423: Comic Strip Live Audition Lottery 2025

It is the "Who's Who Of Who's Not Whom" in New York City comedy.  The Comic Strip Live Audition Lottery. Once a year, the Comic Strip Live holds a lottery for comedians who want to work regular paid spots at their club to get a date to get an audition.  They are the only Manhattan club to offer such an open audition. Once a year, anyone can walk off the street get a ticket and get a date to perform. Some years, the line for an audition can get very long.  Meet the 2025 comedians who got on the line first.  Experience the camaraderie.  Also see the moment we found out that Gene Hackman died.
