We are thrilled to announce that Laughing Lassi, NYC’s premier South Asian standup comedy showcase, has been featured in TimeOut NYC and Indian Tribune! These recent media spotlights reflect the growing impact Laughing Lassi is having on the city’s diverse comedy scene and further affirm our mission to elevate South Asian voices in comedy.
Breaking Barriers in the Comedy World
Since its inception, Laughing Lassi has stood out for consistently selling out shows while spotlighting talented South Asian comedians. As noted in the Indian Tribune article, Laughing Lassi was created to address the lack of representation for South Asian comedians in the mainstream. By offering a platform for comedians to speak authentically and without the pressure of being a “token minority,” we provide an inclusive space for performers to engage audiences who relate to their experiences.
Whether it’s poking fun at immigrant life, cultural quirks, or the absurdities of everyday living, Laughing Lassi resonates because it is real. As highlighted by TimeOut NYC, our show blends humor with heart, showcasing the complexities of South Asian experiences in America in ways that are both refreshing and hilarious.
What the Features Mean for Laughing Lassi
The features in these prominent publications solidify Laughing Lassi as a must-see show in New York’s bustling comedy scene. TimeOut NYC praised the show as a “comedy platform that shines a light on the diverse voices of South Asians navigating life in the U.S.,” and Indian Tribune similarly noted how Laughing Lassi has created an essential stage for South Asian comedians to express their unique stories.
This recognition marks a significant milestone for us. More than just a comedy night, Laughing Lassi fosters a tight-knit community—connecting people through laughter, storytelling, and shared experiences. And as Indian Tribune points out, each show ends with an after-party, creating opportunities for networking and deeper connection beyond the stage.
The Road Ahead: Join the Movement!
With features in both TimeOut NYC and Indian Tribune, we are poised to reach an even broader audience. If you haven’t experienced Laughing Lassi yet, now is the time! Join us for a night of laughter, authenticity, and connection at one of our upcoming shows.
