The History
Owner Edward Farrell took over the space in 2019, and while the pandemic did put live events on hold, BKLYN Comedy Club started building momentum again this past spring.
For our long-term neighbors, you might remember 308 Bedford Ave was once occupied by the popular bar and movie theater, Videology. After a 15 year run, the Videology owners decided to close its doors in the fall of 2018. In March of 2019, the Lower East Side comedy club, Old Man Hustle, decided to open the Brooklyn location.
For comedy lovers, amateur comics, and pros alike, go visit BKLYN Comedy Club for a night of good, affordable, local laughs!
