Just ahead of Saturday Night Live’s 50th season premiere, SNL hosting duo and comedians Colin Jost and Michael Che will be premiering their never-before-seen live comedy special, New York After Dark, on September 12 at The Bell House in Brooklyn.
Hosts of SNL’s “Weekend Update” segment since 2014, Colin Jost and Michael Che have built a notable comedic rapport beloved by the show’s fans over the years in addition to their own individual accomplishments as comedians.
Now, after years behind the camera, the duo will be shining the spotlight on some of their favorite comics from New York City’s comedy scene- and possibly beyond- in a one night only live show in Brooklyn.
After ten years of comedy behind the screen, Jost and Che are moving to the stage for a brand new live comedy event at the historic Bell House. Recorded in front of an in-person audience, the hour-long special will feature “drop ins only”- meaning the exact guest list is unknown. However, audience members can expect some of the duo’s favorite acts, fresh faces to the industry, and possibly even a few household names.
In addition to the mystery lineup, Grammy-nominated musical ensemble 1500 or Nothin’ will be providing the evening’s soundtrack as well as accompanying performances throughout the night as the show’s house band.
