  1. It's Just a Matter of Days ...

    Tuesday, September 10, 2019





    This Friday, people!  Going to be a blast!  Make a day of it.  Visit City 
    Island, a small boating community in the Bronx, visit the many quaint shops, enjoy some seafood (if you like seafood), and then get over to the The Artist (formerly the Starving Artists Café) for a fantastic comedy show.  Just ten bucks admission, no minimum (though they do sell light fare, beverages, and yummy desserts), and a jar will be passed around for contributions for the performers.  We will earn every dollar.





      
    249 City Island Avenue.  If you are taking public transportation, you 
    ultimately have to get the BX29 Bus.  You can take the #6 train to Pelham Bay Park, and catch the bus there.  It’s worth the trip.

    Those of you who already told me you will be there, a big hug to you.  I 
    appreciate your support, and I guarantee mucho laughter.  



    big love to CGG-M

  2. End-of-Summer Comedy Show! at The Artist (formerly the Starving Artists Café) 249 City Island Avenue, City Island will be rockin’ on Friday, September 13, 2019 .  Arrive at 7:45 for seating and settling in.  Showtime 8pm.  Ten bucks admission.  No minimum though you may be tempted to try a delightful dessert.  A jar is passed around later to show your appreciation for the comics.  And what a wonderful line-up we have!

    Melissa Diaz is a comic, writer, and actress from the Bronx.  As a 
    youngster, Melissa made up stories and plays for her friends and family, which were supposed to be very serious, extremely epic tragedies that, instead, made everyone crack up.  Now she talks about overcoming the patriarchy while patrons drink beer and laugh in her face.   Melissa co-produces two comedy shows:  Bunga’s Den every 1st and 3rd Wednesday of the month, and a monthly comedy/variety showcase at New York Comedy Club every second Friday of the month.  http://www.melissadiazcomedy.com/
