Penn District, in Manhattan
Laughing Buddha Comedy
Comedy Club · 410 8th Ave 2nd floor
A second-floor comedy school and stage near Penn Station where a normal week runs to a couple of ticketed showcases and four in-house open mics.
The school is the center of gravity and the stage, The Buddha Room, is attached to it. That is why the calendar carries so many mics: the same space serves people learning and people with tight sets ready.
It sits above the street on Eighth Avenue in the low 30s, a block from Penn Station. Lineups are named on the homepage per date, so the bill is known before you commit.
