Tonight in Chelsea: NYC Comedians, Writers Gather to Tell Personal Holiday Stories

CHELSEA, NY — A handful of comedians will gather at the Upright Citizens Brigade Theatre (UCBT) on West 26th Street near 8th Avenue on Wednesday night, Nov. 30, to tell personal stories about holidays past that have stood out as "a cut above the rest."

Adam Wade, Halle Kiefer, Jim O'Grady and Josh Sharp — some of whom identify more as storytellers than comedians — will all share memories Wednesday night at "The Nights Of Our Lives."

"Some of the funniest writers in New York are getting together to let you know about the nights of their lives," the event page says. The writers will talk about nights "that left behind stories so full of hilarity and wonder that they're worth sharing."

The event is slated to start at 8 p.m. Tickets are just $5.

O'Grady provided those in the neighborhood with a friendly ultimatum:

O'Grady identifies as a reporter, writer and performer; Sharp is currently studying at UCBT; Wade has spent 13 years in the storytelling and comedy scene, according to his site; and Halle Kiefer is a Brooklyn-based comedian who writes for TruTV, according to her Tumblr page.

In case you miss this one, a similar event is scheduled for Dec. 21 at 8 p.m.
