Lots of laughs at the yuck fest: Tweens and teens perform at Gotham Comedy Club

The funniest folks around will be performing at the Gotham Comedy Club on Sept. 17.

The yucks start here. Talented tweens and teens from Kids ‘N Comedy present original material which is screened to be free of profanity and abrasive or cheap “low” humor (like fart jokes) and no knock/knock jokes. Just good old-fashioned schtick poking the funny fingers at politics, getting old, and even death.

Each show features six to 10 kids from the troupe, including Julian Gerber, Sophia Harber, Spencer Kahn, Martin Kramer, Ben Jenkins, Avery Lender, Evan Oberstein, Carson Spuma, Molly Winiarski, Eric Zhu, plus new faces.

Hosts include stand-up comedians and teachers Ashley Brooke Roberts, Nick Maritato, and Robert Dean.

The material is suitable for children 9 to 18 years old.

Kids ‘N Comedy, Sept. 17 at 1 pm; $18 (plus one item). Children’s menu is available.

Gotham Comedy Club [208 W. 23rd St. and Seventh Avenue in Chelsea, (212) 877–6115; www.kidsncomedy.com]
