    About This Event

    Anxiety Attack at New York Comedy Club - East Village presents a five-comic lineup: Anthony Moore, Nina Kharoufeh, Jacob Williams, Rebecca Kaplan and KP Burke. Moore has performed at the Comedy Cellar; Williams favors direct crowd work and tight pacing, with credits on large New York stages including Barclays Center and shared bills with Marlon Wayans and Eddie Griffin; Burke performs regularly at New York Comedy Club - Midtown with observational, conversational material.

    About Anxiety Attack

    “Anxiety Attack” is a comedy set in the close quarters of New York Comedy Club’s Upper West Side room, where jokes land at the speed of a racing mind. The material circles panic, self-monitoring, and the everyday negotiations people make to appear fine in public. In a city that treats pressure as background noise, the show’s subject feels culturally native, even without a documented NYC premiere history. Its sharpest move is refusing melodrama, using structure and timing to map anxiety as a social fact.
