With the stand-up comedy circuit in New York entering another upswing (as evidenced by this Jim Norton-centric New York magazine piece), new comedy clubs are popping up all over the city.
One major one is Laugh Factory, an NYC arm of the popular LA club, which has set up shop at the corner of 42nd Street and 8th Avenue- on the former site of Show World Center, once one of the city’s more notorious porn palaces. That’s a fact that I’m sure will be mentioned by, oh, every single comic who plays there the first six months.
