You know him as the comic who has a penchant for falling asleep when in cases of new experiences. I guarantee he won’t be snoozing for this upcoming gig, however. Yes, IAN ABRAMSON, host of the amazing show 7 Minutes in Purgatory will be bringing the show and his awesome self to this year’s NY Comedy Festival. 7MiP has already been a hit at SXSW, the Bridgetown Comedy Festival, and The Onion’s 2nd Annual 26th Annual Comedy Festival in Chicago. This LIVE show challenges comedians to do their thang directly to a camera alone in a soundproofed room. No easy feat! The victims you’ll be seeing perform at the New York Comedy Festival show presented by Comedy Central include
Aparna Nancherla
Nick Vatterott
Dave Hill
Seaton Smith
+ special guests!
