The New York Comedy Festival features two significant comedy events at Comedy Village: the first full reunion of MTV's cult classic Oddville since the 1990s and the Latina showcase 'Chicas You Should Know,' highlighting both nostalgic comedy heritage and contemporary diverse voices.

Comedy Village in Times Square is making headlines during the New York Comedy Festival with two must-see shows that bridge generations of comedy: the long-awaited MTV Oddville Live: The Reunion and the high-energy Latina showcase NYC Stand-Up: Chicas You Should Know. For the first time since the late 1990s, the entire Oddville, MTV cast reunites for two exclusive performances on Wednesday, November 13 at 8 PM and 10 PM. Tickets are $28 and available at https://ComedyVillage.com/events. The reunion features Rich Brown, David Greene, Melissa Gabriel, Amazing Amy, Suzanne Underdog Muldowney, Handfarter Bruce Gaston, Mr. Phil!, The Zambonies!, Mario Bosco, and Frank & David.
The live show revives the weird brilliance and irreverent humor that made Oddville a cult phenomenon. Adapted from the public-access favorite Beyond Vaudeville, Oddville became known for its oddball guests, underground bands, and spontaneous chaos that helped define MTV's late-night era. PJ Landers, club owner and lifelong comedian, stated that Oddville was one of the most original and hilarious shows ever on MTV, and nothing like it has been seen since. This reunion represents a significant moment for comedy preservation, bringing back a show that influenced an entire generation of comedy fans and performers during its original run.
Before Oddville takes the stage, Comedy Village spotlights the official New York Comedy Festival showcase Chicas You Should Know on Monday, November 11 at 8 PM. Created by Gina Brillon, the powerhouse behind Chismosa Comedy and Women Stand Up NYC, Chicas You Should Know celebrates the bold, brilliant voices of New York's funniest Latinas. Hosted by Paula J. Leon, the lineup features Daniela Mora from Adult Swim, Glorelys Mora from Netflix Is a Joke, Isa Medina from Don't Tell Comedy, Becky Granger from Netflix, and headliner Gina Brillon from HBO and Amazon Prime. Tickets for Chicas You Should Know are $26 and available now at https://ComedyVillage.com.
The show runs from 8:00 PM to 9:30 PM at Comedy Village, 352 West 44th Street, Times Square, New York City, and is one of the most anticipated events in this year's festival lineup. This showcase represents the growing importance of diverse voices in comedy, particularly Latina comedians who are gaining significant recognition in the industry. From nostalgic reunions to fresh new voices, Comedy Village continues to shape Times Square's live-comedy scene by hosting events that mix legacy, culture, and creativity, establishing itself as a defining stage of the New York Comedy Festival.
