TheĀ Kimmy SchmidtĀ panel is set for Nov. 5, at 1pm, at the 92nd Street Y. You’ll recall that during her appearance at Tribeca Film Festival, Tina Fey gushed about the Greenpoint-based show’s co-creatorĀ Robert “master of jokes” Carlock. This time, they’ll be appearing together with fellow writersĀ Sam Means, Dan Rubin, Leila Strachan, Azie Dungey, Meredith Scardino and Lauren Gurganous. Tickets ($40) are right here.
Later that same day, you’ll be able to head over to BRIC House in Brooklyn to catch Big Terrific.Ā Jenny Slate, Max Silvestri, and Gabe Liedman started theĀ comedy night at Sound Fix in Williamsburg inĀ 2008, and it got drop-ins fromĀ Sarah Silverman, Chris Rock, Zach Galifianakis, and Aziz Ansari (this was before Zach was interviewing presidents andĀ AzizĀ couldĀ shut down rooftop bars). Of course, all three members of the founding trio eventually moved to Los Angeles, and the show ended its run at Cameo last year (it’s now at Largo in Los Angeles). At the time, Liebman told Vulture, “Itās a bummer, but New York is done. That block is gonna be all Lululemon stores within a year.”
True to that statement, the trio isn’t returning toĀ Williamsburg (Cameo closed just about a year ago, after all) but to Downtown Brooklyn, where BRIC House is located. Visit the NYCF’s website for ticketsĀ ($25) to the 6:30 and 9:30 shows.
