Off Night
Off Night is a comedy and music extravaganza styled like a late night talk show. Hosts Ephraim Birney (Chester Bailey, As Time Goes By) and Ryan Quigley (The Winslow Boy) present their guests consisting of singer-songwriters, stand-ups and general New York City ne’er-do-wells in five to ten minute performances before sitting them down on the Off Night couch and conducting an interview or playing a game together. A live band keeps the momentum pulsing throughout the hour long show, as well as a team of writers who have teamed up with our guests to try and break Ryan and Ephraim.
1st April 8:30pm (NOT A JOKE)
Only with Re/Venue NYC @A.R.T ./NY, produced by The Commonground
