Lisa Landry is one of the most fearless and innovative women working in the New York City stand-up comedy scene. This break out talent recently starred in her own half-hour special "Comedy Central Presents Lisa Landry"- set to air early in 2007- and can be seen in the frequent re-runs of her 2005 appearance on Comedy Central's popular show "Premium Blend."

The Louisiana native is one of the wisecracking gals on "Brett Butler Presents: The Southern Belles of Comedy" and a commentator on E!'s "Forbes Top 100 Celebrities." She's made guest appearances on Fox's "Mike and Juliet in the Morning Show" and on the outrageous "Hollyweird" segment on MSNBC's "Scarborough Country". Her comedy routines can be heard on Sirius Satellite Radio's "Raw Dog" and "Blue Collar Comedy" channels and she's often in their studios doing live interviews, too.

An extremely versatile performer- she's also recorded a wide-range of voice over spots for radio (Nextel, Cingular), industrials (Yahoo, Bell South) and television (the Travel Channel, A&E), co-starred on "Law and Order: SVU" and is a contributing writer to US Weekly's satirical "Fashion Police."

One of the most sought-after female comedians in the business, her hectic schedule keeps her constantly on-stage at clubs, theaters and colleges throughout the country. When Landry's in NYC, she's a regular at the Comic Strip Live, Gotham Comedy Club and the Comedy Cellar. Lisa Landry's easy going style- along with her sharp wit, unique perspective and well-crafted material- makes her an audience favorite.

Our Jerry Seinfeld Tribute night was a huge success! Over 60 million people world wide knew about the show as a result of United Press International, Newsweek, and the Daily India running articles about it. Special thanks to the Comical Radio for their tremendous support. Thanks to everyone who came out to show their support and for our amazing Seinfeld impersonators!

Robert Kelly is one of today's hottest young rising stars in the Stand-up comedy scene. This native from Boston started his career in a sketch comedy group before going solo six years ago. Since then, Robert has been in high demand for clubs and colleges across the country. He’s a long time Comic Strip Live favorite.

When Robert takes the stage, a non-stop energy is exuded that grabs the audience's full attention and never let's go! Always keeping his act fresh and new, his cutting edge humor and strong dynamic presence keeps you laughing into the next joke.

Robert's routine consists of mischievous and playful situations from that we can all relate to. From the growing years, to college and relationships, Robert is an expert in highlighting the strange behaviors of people.

Comedy is a small part of the Robert Kelly repertoire. In the last couple years Robert has filmed three independent films, including "Last Night at Eddie's", "The Koala Bear Kid", and "Dating Games".

Robert just recently guest-starred with Denis Leary in ABC's sitcom, "The Job" and was featured on Comedy Central's, "Premium Blend".

His television credits include: "Adrenaline Run" (a television pilot filmed last summer for 20th Century Fox), MTV's "The Jim Breuer Show", Comedy Central, NBC's "Friday Night Videos", the Burley Bear Network, Law and order, Carson Daly show on NBC "Stand-up/Stand-up", ABC's "America's Most Wanted", and Caroline's Comedy.

Thursday, October 25, 2007 - Jerry! Jerry! Jerry!

In honor and support of one of our most famous alumni, the Comic Strip Live will be offering FREE admission to anyone who sees Jerry Seinfeld’s “Bee Movie.” You just have to show their ticket stubs at the door. The offer will remain standing indefinitely.

“You dream about the 9 o'clock spot on Saturday night at the Comic Strip Live." Jerry Seinfeld once told Liz Smith of the New York Post.

In addition to “Bee Movie,” the Comic Strip Live will also be hosting a “Jerry Seinfeld Tribute Night” on Thursday, November 15th at 8:30 pm. It will feature a ‘best Seinfeld impression’ contest (open to all audiences), memorabilia on display from Jerry’s early years in comedy, and will feature an all-star line up headlined by Rob Magnotti who will do his entire set as Jerry Seinfeld.

To enter the competition and to make a reservation for this soon to be sold out show, please call (212) 861-9386.

Latin American Comedy is exploding in New York City. The core of this trend takes place every last Thursday of the month at the Comic Strip Live with Comedy Caliente. It has grown so popular, that we had to add a second show (which sold out just as fast as the first one). If you haven't attended a Caliente show yet, you are literally missing out on the best party you've ever attended x 5. Call (212) 861-9386 to reserve a seat at the next show - if you're lucky, we may have a seat left.
