New York comedian Joseph Vecsey returns with a brand new season of All Star Comedy. February 19 will be hosted by comedian Jamie Roberts, who will be joined by comedians Reggie Thomas and Kareem Green.
Since it began, the series has been headlined by stand-up veterans and fresh faces alike, growing to become the East End’s premiere live comedy series. Vecsey himself has been selected as one of Comedy Central’s Comics To Watch, has toured with Adam Sandler, David Spade, and Rob Schneider, and has worked as co-producer on Sandler’s Netflix special, 100% Fresh. He is also producer of Netflix’s The Wrong Missy, in which he stars.
Jamie Roberts is a name synonymous with many things including determined, focused, and laugh out loud funny. He possesses a persona that warms up the crowd and brings down the house. Jamie’s comedic timing and ability to turn any situation humorous has made him into one of the most sought-after hosts in the New York City area. From film to the stage, Jamie is a comic’s comic—you never know what he may say or do next. Jamie made his bones on the New York comedy scene as the executive producer and weekly host of the longest running Sunday show in New York called Sunday Night Live. The show created a platform where up and coming comedians could perform alongside some of the greats such as Mike Epps, George Wallace, David Spade, Marlon Wayans and a number of others who graced the Sunday Night Live stage.
Reggie (Reg) Thomas is no stranger to funny. Once it was clear that Reg wasn’t going to be tall it was time to get funny. Some of his earlier inspirations include Dave Chappelle, Chris Rock, and his Haitian immigrant parents. Reg’s comedic talents have been commissioned by media companies such as BuzzFeed, Complex Media and Atlantic Records over the years. Whether touring with Amanda Seales (HBO Special I Be Knowin’) or Chris Redd (Saturday Night Live), Reg is always writing. Without a doubt he is having the time of his life making sold out audiences in theaters and clubs across the country laugh. When he’s not on the road you can find Reg on stage at a comedy club and working on his comedy brand and show, Productively Stoned.
As a three-time champion at Showtime at the Apollo, Kareem Green is a multi-faceted entertainer and comedian whose talents include stand-up, improv, acting and writing. Kareems relatable comedic style has earned him television appearances on BETComicView and TV-Ones Bill Bellamy’s Who’s Got Jokes. Often compared to Dave Chapelle, Kareem shares a wittiness that keeps audiences in stitches throughout the U.S., Europe, and the Caribbean Islands about his experiences in foster care, summer camp programs, and having an extremely unsuccessful criminal career. As well as being an accomplished comedian, Kareem is a skilled actor and has had key roles in the movies Gold Digger Killer, Holla If I Kill You and Comedy In The Hood. His headliner appearances at colleges and comedy clubs proves Kareem is soon to be a household name. Kareem has been featured at New York’s top comedy clubs, including Caroline’s on Broadway, Standup New York, Gotham Comedy Club, and the Comic Strip Live. He has received national recognition in nationwide comedy competitions such as Comedy Central’s Laugh Riots and The Salem Orb Contest. In 2009, Kareem was crowned Winner of the Bay Area Black Comedy Competition and Top Finalist in NBC’s Standup for Diversity. Kareem Green is, by far, a rising star!
