Two comics to perform stand-up each month at Maggie Mae’s, first show tonight

Two comics are bringing stand-up to Sunnyside performing each month at Maggie Mae’s.

Cory Jarvis, a Sunnyside resident who has performed at several festivals, and Brian Jian, a comedian from Manhattan, will be putting on a show on the first Thursday of every month in the downstairs space at Maggie Mae’s (41-15 Queens Blvd).

The shows are free and run from 8:00pm to 9:30pm. The first show is tonight.

Each month five or six comics will perform.

Jarvis said that a lot of Sunnyside residents are interested in stand-up and residents will no longer need leave the neighborhood see quality performers.

“You can to Manhattan or go a few steps around the corner and avoid the drunk Mets fans on the 7 train,” he said.

I think based on the warm reception that I’ve received from SUNNYSIDE Post fans I will try my hand at one of the comedy shows. Come on out and bring the kids. Lol, lol. Hee, hee.

What better place to avoid drunks than —- a bar.

Is all your material this funny?

Yeah, because the best place to avoid drunks is a bar.

I hope his jokes are better than that.

I assume Jarvis was making a joke regarding drunk mets fans. Pretty lame. His stand up material must really suck.

I’ve been on 4 trains with drunken Yankee fans (back in the late 90s) and it was truly horrible, going there AND coming home. I’ve never had a bad experience on the 7 train- Mets fans are nice, attractive, and well-behaved. I can’t even recall seeing anyone that was drunk!

Still, if a comedian wants to make a joke about it, no big deal. As a Mets fan, I’m pretty tolerant.

Can Queens’ food scene thrive with both trucks and restaurants?

In Jackson Heights at 4 p.m. on a Thursday afternoon, Roosevelt Avenue is buzzing with energy as commuters file in and out of subway cars and onto the street and cars and trucks grapple to get down the busy road. The street is filled with rows of shops and restaurants, along with food carts, street vendors and food trucks along the avenue. The almost-but-not-quite the weekend lag leaves hungry commuters faced with another choice to make throughout their day and the array of food truck options in busy areas like Jackson Heights offers customers convenience and delicious food without breaking the bank, two features that can feel vital, particularly with rising costs of living and pressure from inflation.
