HOW WE GOT STARTED
The owner, Mark Rothman, spent decades as a street performer all over the world. He then set up a club in a storage area in the basement of the Africa Centre in central London. From there, he managed to grow the business and move into our flagship building on Drury Lane. We have shows running every night and the majority of which sell out in advance! A couple of years ago, we expanded and opened our amazing new space on Kingsway.
WHERE WE ARE NOW
We have had an outstanding roster of massive acts drop by for spots over the years including BILL BURR, JIM JEFFERIES, DAVE CHAPPELLE, CHRIS ROCK, KATHERINE RYAN, MICHAEL CHE, TREVOR NOAH, MICHELLE WOLF, AZIZ ANSARI, MARK NORMAND and many more…
With all of this it’s easy to see why we are no longer a Top Secret Comedy Club and with that, we have moved across the Atlantic and have opened up a club in the East Village!
We are unique from most NY clubs as we have NO DRINK MINIMUM and our shows feature a nice little interval where you can get up, use the bathroom & grab a drink without the fear of standing up whilst comics are on stage.
SHOWTIMES
Mondays, Wednesdays & Thursdays
FREE comedy nights featuring some of the best comics on the circuit – and including celebrity guests who may drop by! These shows are free to attend and we will ask for a donation at the end. You get to decide how much the show is worth and the money is split between the comics. This keeps comedy affordable and accessible to everyone regardless of financial background.
The first Monday of every month will be NEW PANTS which is a comedy show produced & hosted by Emil Wakim, Ahamed Weinberg, Gavin Matts & Malik Elassal and will feature some of their comedy buddies.
Fridays & Saturdays
Our weekend mixed bill shows are $15 ($12 for students and members) and much like the above shows, feature some of the best acts in town! These shows are a set price and what you pay is all you need to pay. Remember, there is no drink minimum!
Tuesdays
Every week we have Neal Brennan & Friends. Neal and a few of his pals will be working through some new material. The shows have featured Gary Vider, Todd Barry, Mark Normand, Ilana Glazer & more. Don’t miss out on seeing some of the best acts!
Sundays
The day of rest! We are usually closed on Sundays but every now and then we have independently produced shows. We recommend you check out our full calendar to see what Sundays have shows!
