NYLaughs Inc. is a not for profit organization and New York City’s newest Arts institution. Through the production of FREE comedy performances set within NYC’s myriad of public venues, NY Laughs seeks to provide laughter to everyday New Yorkers and elevate the profile and reputation of the Comic Arts.

New York City has long served as the inspiration for many of the world’s most innovative comedic performers and directors – many of these stepping straight from the city’s clubs and theatres into our living rooms via television and the silver screen. For every one of these household names, hundreds of others continue to hone and develop their skills in the competitive New York comedy scene. Given the right experience and exposure, any number of these performers may blossom to become the next big thing and further contribute to the city’s proud and deserved reputation as the comedy capital of the world.
