The King of Staten Island

0 upcoming performances in New York

Despite the shared title, this “King of Staten Island” is a stand-up showcase staged at New York Comedy Club – Midtown, built around a five-comic lineup: Matt Richards, Ricky Velez, Vlad Camaano, Eva Evans, and Hormoz Rashidi. The bill sits in a familiar Manhattan pipeline, with several performers tied to rooms like the Comedy Cellar and to the Pete Davidson orbit that helped popularize Staten Island as a comic reference point. It treats borough identity less as geography than as material. The cultural point is modest but real: a snapshot of how New York comedy circulates between neighborhoods, clubs, and names.
