    About This Event

    As part of the New York Laughs Festival, stand-up comedian Oscar Aydin presents Lavender Marriage at The Stand NYC. Aydin, who has appeared across New York comedy rooms including The Stand, returns to the venue for a festival slot that showcases his current stand-up material.

    About Lavender Marriage

    *Lavender Marriage* is a stand-up set that borrows its title from a once-common cover story: mixed-orientation marriages used to protect reputations in an era when being openly queer could end a career. Presented at The Stand NYC as part of the New York Laughs Festival, the show centers on Oscar Aydin’s current material, with Tim Dillon also on the bill. It treats “passing” and public performance as related acts, sometimes uncomfortably so. In New York, that tension reads less like history and more like a living archive.
