Non-Stop Laughs All Week: New York Comedy Club Stamford Delivers a Powerhouse Lineup of Stand-Up Heavyweights

If your idea of a perfect night out includes sharp wit, big laughs, and unforgettable live performances, New York Comedy Club Stamford just stacked the deck in your favor. From internationally acclaimed headliners to rising viral stars and specialty showcases, this week’s lineup delivers wall-to-wall comedy with zero downtime. 


Whether you want clever storytelling, crowd work chaos, or raw, unfiltered punchlines, there’s a show with your name on it — and several you’ll want to double up on. 


Here’s what’s coming to the stage: 


🎤 Wednesday, Feb 4 – Rhys Nicholson (One Night Only) Multi-award-winning Australian stand-up Rhys Nicholson kicks off the week with their signature blend of razor-sharp intelligence and premium, polished comedy. 

An acclaimed author, actor, and live performer, Nicholson has earned international recognition for whip-smart observations, biting humor, and an effortlessly charming stage presence. Their sets feel both sophisticated and wildly funny — the kind of comedy that keeps you laughing and thinking at the same time. 


Expect clever, high-caliber stand-up from a global favorite. 


🎤 Thursday, Feb 5 – Alfred Robles (One Night Only)  East L.A.’s own Alfred Robles brings big personality and even bigger crowd interaction. 

Known for hilarious observational takes on everyday life — plus spontaneous, sometimes chaotic exchanges with the audience — Robles first gained national attention touring with Gabriel Iglesias. Since then, he’s built a loyal following with stories about family, culture, and the kind of real-life absurdities everyone recognizes. 


Relatable. Rowdy. Ridiculously funny. 


🎤 Friday, Feb 6 & Saturday, Feb 7 – Deric Cahill (4 Shows)  Fresh off his debut special Toxic PapaDeric Cahill storms into Stamford with his bold new tour, “Unfortunate Son.” 

Cahill’s comedy is fearless and brutally honest. He dives headfirst into childhood trauma, family dysfunction, and everyday chaos — then somehow makes it all hilariously cathartic. Nothing is off-limits, and that’s exactly the point. 


Raw, edgy, and unapologetically sharp, this is stand-up that hits hard and leaves you gasping for air between laughs. 


Four shows mean multiple chances to catch one of comedy’s most exciting rising voices. 


🌯 Saturday 4:30 PM – Burrito League Comedy Showcase Comedy meets celebration at this special afternoon showcase honoring runners and walkers who conquered Stamford’s first-ever Burrito League

It’s a high-energy, feel-good set featuring a variety of comics and plenty of post-race laughs. Think lighter, party-vibe comedy — the perfect way to keep the good times rolling after the finish line. 


🎤 Sunday, Feb 8 – Chris Higgins (7 PM)   Colorado-born, Chicago-based Chris Higgins blends stoner wisdom, outdoorsy charm, and killer impressions into one uniquely hilarious act. 

With millions of views across viral clips and 1.6M followers for his sketch series God n Angel, Higgins has quickly become one of the internet’s favorite comics — and he’s even better live. His laid-back storytelling style sneaks up on you before landing huge laughs. 


A smart pick if you love offbeat, original comedy voices. 


🎤 Monday, Feb 9 & Tuesday, Feb 10 – Ramy Youssef (7 PM)  Opening up Valentine's the week is a true heavyweight: Ramy Youssef

The award-winning Egyptian-American creator, actor, and comedian has become one of the most influential storytellers of his generation. Known for blending cultural insight, personal reflection, and sharp humor, Youssef’s comedy is thoughtful, timely, and deeply funny. 


Seeing him in an intimate club setting is rare — and absolutely worth grabbing tickets early
