Comedy Club located on the upper west side. The videos feature four segments led by Wali Collins who is doing a routine wrapped completely around the text messages being sent to his phone from a live audience.
Dani Zoldan, owner of the legendary comedy club StandUpNY said he was happy to offer the location for the shoot. Of the viral video experience, Wali Collins says it best, "I had a great time making history!"
The videos have turned out to be groundbreaking and are scheduled for release on August 20th. What we have here is only a preview made from footage during the rained-out shoot on July 18th. So stay tuned for the real thing.
