Visit Comic Strip Live

Upon entering the Comic Strip, you'll pass a wall lined with autographed publicity shots of comics who have played the club since its inception in the 1970's. Eddie Murphy, Jerry Seinfeld and Paul Riser are just a few of today's stars whose pictures grace this East Side establishment. Wednesday is Alternative Night at the club, where, prior to the traditional stand-up routines, you'll see group sketches and one-man shows. The club, which seats up to 220 people, serves light fare, which includes pizza, Chinese and Mexican food.
