About This Event
Good Bits presents a mixed lineup at New York Comedy Club - Upper West Side, featuring Dan Soder, Mehran Khaghani, Ismael Loutfi, Katie Hannigan, Shaun Murphy and Salma Zaky. The bill pairs Soder’s television- and podcast-facing profile with Khaghani’s Boston-honed, observation-driven craft, alongside Loutfi’s Comedy Cellar–seasoned club work, Hannigan’s festival and venue experience, and Zaky’s measured, close-observation material.
About Good Bits
Good Bits is a live stand-up set presented at New York Comedy Club’s Upper West Side room, a long-running stop in the city’s comedy circuit. The bill brings together Adrienne Iapalucci, Mark Gagnon, Tony Deyo, Wilfred Padua, and Shaun Murphy, working in short, distinct segments rather than a single narrative show. In a city where comedy is both nightlife and a testing ground for new material, this format matters for how it reflects the craft in progress. One earned note: the lineup’s range favors sharp turns in tone over cohesion.
