NYLaughs is a unique non profit that works to change the perception of stand-up comedy, deepen the appreciation of it as an art form and build community via laughter. Its signature summer comedy series in NYC parks called "Laughter in the Park" will premiere its 9th season on July 5 in Central Park in Mineral Springs.
The series has been featured in the NYTimes, Wall Street Journal, NY1 and more! There are five shows this year and the series comes to Brooklyn Bridge Park on Sunday July 19 at 2p at Granite Prospect. Some of the comedians performing include Michelle Wolf from "Late Night with Seth Meyers," Chris DiStefano from MTV's "Guy Code," Ophira Eisenberg host of "The Moth" and more!
