Mark this event on your Big Apple planner if you intend on being in town November 1-6,
2005. The 2005 NY Comedy
Festival is back with a cheery slogan of ‘Putting the f-u in funny,’ which probably means you don’t want to
sit in the very front row. Do prepare to bust your gut, pop a button off those tad-too-tight pants, or shed a couple of
tears from outrageous jokes and insane commentary. Comedians like Joy Behar, Mario Cantone, D.L. Hughley, David Allen
Grier, Dennis Leary, Susie Essman, and Triumph the Insult Comic Dog all appear on the festivals’ sizzling
line-up. (BTW – I really don’t see the humor in that insult dog, but that might just be me.) That’s really only a
few though so you’ll want to check the full schedule for your fav comedian.
