    About This Event

    Big Jay Oakerson and Luis J. Gomez lead a Story Warz lineup at New York Comedy Club - Midtown, joined by additional special guests. Both are fixtures on the city club circuit — Oakerson appears regularly at The Stand and with The Legion of Skanks, while Gomez splits time between The Stand and New York Comedy Club — bringing blunt, podcast‑influenced storytelling into a stand‑up format.

    About Story Warz

    Story Warz is a live, story-driven comedy show staged at New York Comedy Club – Midtown, where stand-ups turn personal anecdotes into structured bits in front of a room that hears every pause. Featured performers include Big Jay Oakerson and Luis J. Gomez, working in a New York tradition that treats confession and argument as raw material for humor. No specific NYC premiere history is publicly established, but the format fits the city’s long-running workshop culture for testing voice and timing. One critical note: the show rewards clarity over chaos, and not every story survives the spotlight.
