Profile

The Slipper Room’s naked ladies make way for an unusually wholesome night of humor. Okay, so the comedic stylings of host Seth Herzog (Best Week Ever) and guest comics like Aziz Ansari (Human Giant) and Kumail Nanjiani might get a little blue, but Herzog’s mom appears every week, which is pretty damn sweet. The crowd is a mix of fellow comics, New York media micro-celebrities, and folks confused by the sight of someone's (fully-clothed) mother on stage at a burlesque bar. — Leila Cohan
