A Really Bad Time with Alex Kumin A

Now playing at UCB Theatre, *A Really Bad Time with Alex Kumin* is a stand-up set performed by Alex Kumin, a New York comic whose work has been shaped in rooms like the Comedy Cellar. The material arrives with the pace of the city and the accumulated lessons of local stages, delivered in UCB’s tight, performance-first space. No specific NYC premiere history has been announced, but the show sits squarely in the ongoing downtown tradition of testing and refining jokes in public. One clear strength is its attention to how discomfort becomes a shared social fact.
