Friday Night Laughs

1 upcoming performance in New York

Friday Night Laughs is a late-night comedy show staged at Comedy in Harlem, placing stand-up inside a neighborhood club that has long doubled as a community forum. The lineup includes Alonzo “Hamburger” Jones—recognizable for a cowboy hat persona and a repeated “hamburger” tag—alongside Freddie Ricks, Jonas Jeannot, and Miss Lisa, who work in a tight club style built on direct address and quick pivots. No NYC premiere history is cited, but the setting matters: Harlem remains one of the city’s enduring incubators for live Black comedy. The show’s strength is its contrast of character-driven bits with straight-ahead, room-reading craft.
