The 4th annual March Comedy Madness will hold an open audition for stand-up comics on Friday, January 29 at Comix Comedy Club. The audition will run 9am – 2pm. Comics are asked to prepare one minute of material and will perform in front of the creators and hosts of the show, as well as the owner and talent booker of Comix. Selected comedians will advance to an online preliminary voting round, in which 64 will be determined.
In honor of the NCAA College Basketball Tournament, 64 comedians go one-on-one in March Comedy Madness, the comedy competition hosted and refereed by Bryan Kennedy and Josh Filipowski. In each match, two comics will perform standup head-to-head, and then the audience decides the winner! As the field is narrowed down, the sets will get longer and more hilarious, until the final two comics perform to see who will be crowned the 2010 March Comedy Madness Champion! Past winners include Julian McCullough, Reese Waters and Myq Kaplan. The winner of this year’s competition will win a cash prize, a weekend of shows at Comix, in addition to industry exposure.
Comix is located at 353 14th Street at 9th Avenue in New York, NY.
