We've all heard that making friends in NYC is hard, loneliness is an epidemic, and the internet is making us all forget how to be humans. Now, hear professional comedians complain about it! And after the comedy show, you'll get to ACTUALLY DO SOMETHING about it and talk to other human beings! We'll warm things up with a 45-ish-minute-long comedy show about all things friendship. The highs, the lows, and the delicious jelly-filled middles. Mmmmmm. Then, we'll actually get to meet each other! We're bringing in Skip the Small Talk for a 2ish-hour-long event where we'll pair you up with strangers and have you switch off partners every so often (kinda like speed-dating, but without the speed and without the dating). We'll have a fabulous host leading the whole shebang so it won't be awkward, and we'll give you question cards to guide conversation just a few notches deeper than you'd usually go so you don't accidentally talk about what you do for work six times in a row. Feel free to come alone (most people do-- we promise we won't make it weird for you) or bring a friend!
