Upper East Side Comedy Club at Bedford Falls NYC

NYCF's Official Warm-Up Room. Headliners drop in to test new material alongside NYC's best up-and-coming comics.
Upper East Side Comedy Club is the official Workout Room of the festival.
We're proud to introduce The Workout — a nightly series during festival week where headliners drop in to test new bits, road-map upcoming specials, and share the stage with the best up-and-coming comics in New York.
What Is The Workout?
Every big comedy special starts the same way — a comic in a small room, trying jokes that haven't quite landed yet, in front of an audience that gets to be first.
The Workout is that room.
During NYCF week, festival headliners will stop by Upper East Side Comedy Club between their theater dates to work out material that hasn't been on stage yet. Between drop-ins, you'll see the sharpest rising comics in NYC delivering their most polished sets — the ones they've been building all year for exactly this crowd.
You get:
<ul><li>Festival headliners testing brand-new material</li><li>NYC's top up-and-comers presenting their tightest sets</li><li>A room where every set matters — because everyone is working</li></ul>
It's the show comics wish existed at every festival. Now it does.

Co-founded by Iraq War veteran and choreographer Román Baca, Exit12 Dance Company began in 2007 as a way for him to process his military experience through dance. As a ballet dancer turned Marine, choreography became a means of healing—an expressive outlet to explore and share the invisible wounds of war.
Exit12’s full-length performance at John Jay College,&nbsp;Stories of War in Honor of Veterans Day,&nbsp;weaves together veteran storytelling with concert dance. The program takes the audience through the military experience, exploring war, the effects on family, homecoming, reintegration, and hope for the future. It will include a new piece developed with the John Jay College Veteran community – the College enrolls the most military-related students in the City University of New York system – and conclude with an audience talkback.&nbsp;

ABOUT EXIT12 DANCE COMPANY
Iraq War veteran and choreographer Roman Baca&nbsp;co-founded&nbsp;Exit12 Dance Company&nbsp;in 2007 to process his military experience through dance. His early works received critical acclaim and opened dialogue about the veteran experience.
After several of his platoon mates died by suicide in 2011, Baca saw the urgent need for others in the military community to access similar healing tools. Exit12 expanded to serve veterans, service members, and military families, honoring the diversity of experiences within the armed forces. The company developed a model that brings together individuals affected by war and guides them through writing and movement workshops to co-create public dance theater performances that reflect their stories, challenges, and hopes. Each performance is followed by facilitated discussions that deepen understanding between performers and audiences.
Since becoming a nonprofit in 2018, Exit12 has evolved from a small dance company into an internationally recognized organization advancing arts-based approaches to healing, dialogue, and cultural diplomacy. Rooted in our mission to use dance and storytelling to honor and explore the military experience, our programming meets the unique needs of the military-connected community while fostering inclusion and shared understanding.
Each year, Exit12 serves over 1,000 military-connected participants and reaches more than 5,000 audience members through public performances and livestreams. We conduct a minimum of 25 weeks of rehearsals with a core ensemble of seven professional dancers, creating new works inspired by stories of service in collaboration with participants.

Exit12 has served over 10,000 members of the military community and engaged more than 70,000 civilians through live events—and over a million through digital and print media—bridging the military-civilian divide and fostering empathy through art.

Mellon Foundation’s 2010 report, “We Make Do,”</a>&nbsp;which cited how destabilizing the shortage of affordable rehearsal space in New York City is to the dance sector. A successful pilot supporting residencies on four CUNY campuses in 2013 led to CDI’s formal launch in 2014. Since then, CDI has become a key player in New York City’s performing arts ecosystem, leading a consortium of 14 CUNY colleges and four arts organizations to host 20+ residencies for NYC choreographers and dance companies each year. Over the past 12 years, CDI has granted 300 residencies to emerging and established choreographers, providing invaluable resources to artists, while enhancing CUNY students’ education and cultural experiences.
The CUNY Dance Initiative receives major support from The Howard Gilman Foundation, The George S. Kaufman Charitable Foundation, and The Mertz Gilmore Foundation. Additional support is provided by the SHS Foundation, The Gladys Krieble Delmas Foundation, and the Harkness Foundation for Dance.

Americans voted for change. But what kind?
Democrats have won control of Congress. But a rejection of the party in power is not necessarily an endorsement of the alternative. What did voters reject — and what are they asking for now? Has anything fundamentally changed about the crisis facing American democracy?
Fareed Zakaria and Patrick Deneen meet at 92NY for America’s Liberal Reckoning, a Munk Debate on whether America’s founding commitments to individual rights, free expression, and limited government can answer the country’s discontent — or helped create it.
Join us as the Munk Debates, Toronto’s renowned forum for substantive and fearless public debate, come to New York City for the first time, with longtime moderator Rudyard Griffiths presiding.
The motion: Be it resolved, liberalism has failed America.
Arguing for the motion, Notre Dame political philosopher Patrick Deneen, author of Why Liberalism Failed and Regime Change: Toward a Postliberal Future, contends that liberalism’s failures grow out of its successes. By putting individual autonomy above all else, he argues, it has weakened families, communities, and the institutions that give life meaning — while concentrating power in corporations, bureaucracies, and a professional elite. For Deneen, America needs to move beyond liberalism.
Arguing against the motion, CNN anchor, Washington Post columnist, and international bestselling author Fareed Zakaria maintains that liberalism’s principles remain essential to America’s future. Individual rights, free expression, free markets, and democratic institutions have delivered freedom and prosperity while allowing people with profoundly different beliefs to live together. The answer, he argues, is to renew those commitments.
After the votes, hear the arguments — with two leading thinkers debating what America should do next.

Join writer Barbara Edelston Peterson and Jewish influencer Rabbi Yael Buechler for a conversation about one of Yiddish’s most beloved words and the rich Jewish tradition of finding delight in the accomplishments, connections, and everyday moments that give life meaning — and Peterson’s new book, Kvell.
What if joy isn’t the opposite of resilience, but one of its deepest expressions? At a time when Jewish communities are navigating uncertainty and change, kvelling offers more than a fleeting feeling — it points toward a distinctly Jewish practice of gratitude, celebration, and hope.
Together, they examine how joy can be cultivated intentionally — not as an escape from the world’s challenges, but as a powerful response to them. Hear them explore the wisdom embedded in Jewish tradition, the enduring relevance of Yiddish as a language of emotional and cultural insight, and the ways embracing joy can strengthen individuals, families, and communities.
Whether you’re discovering the meaning of kvell for the first time or have long cherished the word, this conversation offers an invitation to celebrate the values, practices, and moments that help us flourish.
