The Rat NYC

Shoes Off: All Asian Improv Comedy is turning 2 years old! This AANHPI Month, join our birthday celebration at The Rat NYC in DUMBO, Brooklyn.
We've got laughs on tap, prizes to give for eager participants, and silly games to play. Come sing improvised songs to karaoke tracks, and represent our heritage in ridiculous ways never to be seen again.
Plus there's an improv jam for the community at the end of the show.
Shoes Off is a platform for Asian artists. Through our bimonthly shows, we've showcased hundreds of Asian performers in a blend of newcomers and seasoned veterans. We've even been featured at the Third Coast Improv Festival and Hartford Improv Festival.
Share the stage with us!

The Vino Theater

It’s 1985, and things are about to get toasty at a very special episode of Dean Fartin’s Celebrity Roast… where murder (and death drops) are absolutely on the menu.
Throw on your boldest 80s glam and step into a night of big hair, bigger egos, and totally unhinged drama as our drag kings and queens roast the infamous “Tabloid King,” Rupert Flemmington—to filth.
Sip, sleuth, and throw some shade of your own… because in this Dynasty-inspired world, not everyone makes it out alive.
Solve the murder—or better yet, become part of the chaos in this fully immersive drag experience.
Doors open at 7PM, giving you time to grab a drink, mingle, and maybe get pulled into the story early… 
The show officially kicks off at 7:30PM—and from there, all bets are off.
Get there early for a chance to play a character… if you dare. 💋
