The Stand West is a comedy club on West 15th Street with one room and one purpose: stand-up, booked by the team behind The Stand.
Some nights it is one headliner with an hour. Some nights it is a full lineup passing the mic. Either way the calendar is the place to look, and every show page says who is on, when doors open and what a seat costs.
From The Stand
The Stand has been a home for New York’s funniest comics and its best comedy crowds since it opened on East 16th Street, and was named the city’s best comedy venue by New York Magazine and Time Out New York.
It is run by brothers Cris and Paul Italia with Patrick Milligan, who also operate a management and production company representing some of the best names in comedy. In 2015 they were tapped as the stand-up bookers for The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon.
