Comedy has always done well
in Atlantic City and the biggest
names in the business continue
to headline casinos there each
month. But comedy in a casino is
one thing and comedy in an authentic comedy club is another.
It’s edgier, it’s raw, it’s true. It’s
the lifeblood of the industry.
With the loss of the Comedy
Stop, comedian Butch Bradley
saw his opportunity to fulfill his
dream of opening his own club.
In its first few months, Butch
Bradley’s Comedy Hideaway
has quickly created a buzz in the
city. Located at 151 South New
York Avenue in an old speakeasy
owned by Nucky Johnson, the
club has brought in major headliners from around the country
and its open mic has helped
raise the quality of budding comics in a very short period of time.
The club focuses on a few
nights of the week for now. Tuesday is service industry night;
there is an open mic on Thursday
