Running Late with Scott Rogowsky
Live Comedy Talk Show in NYC
LOOK AT THAT! Advance tickets are sold out – BUT – there will be a stand-by line, and the good folks at UCB have assured me they will pack every last body and soul into that little theatre on Wednesday night, so bring a book (do people still bring books?) and hop on the line and patiently await the night of your life.
SETH OLENICK (photographer) – Seth has been snappin’ smart shots of the show for a couple years now, but he’s been documenting comedians in New York and LA for a decade prior, and he’s collected his best portraits into a limited-edition, handsome volume called FUNNY BUSINESS which you can and should buy for your coffee table. Just make sure not to spill coffee on it. This book deserves better than that.
JONATHAN KESSELMAN (Running Later 1.01) – the writer/director of the Hebrew Hammer has helmed a new movie written by and starring Maz Jobrani called Jimmy Vestvood: Amerikan Hero, and it’s receiving its world premiere at the Austin Film Festival on October 26. If you don’t live in Austin, check out the trailer on YouTube and then twiddle your thumbs until the full film comes to your town.
DAN ABRAMSON (Running Later 1.01) – the editor-in-chief of Funny Or Die’s occasionally published humor magazine The Occasional has been named the editor-in-chief of the newly launched Funny or Die News, the latest vertical in the FOD media empire. Look – there was a thing in the Hollywood Reporter about it!
We’re pleased to announce that we’ve been selected to participate in the New York Comedy Festival this year, with a new show added on Sunday, November 9th at 6pm at world famous Caroline’s on Broadway. And we have none other than JERRY SPRINGER booked as our headliner! Check back in for more updates, but in the meantime, get your ticket!
