Some Long Islanders visit New York City to enjoy comedy, without realizing they have great venues in their own backyard.
Governor’s of Levittown and The Brokerage Comedy Club in Bellmore feature entertaining lineups year-round. And not only do these comedy clubs feature famous comedians such as Andrew Dice Clay, Gilbert Gottfried and Nick DePaolo, they feature local comedians.
Eric Tartaglione, a native Long Islander, has been featured at The Brokerage and Governor’s on amateur night, and as an opener for various headliners. Recently, Tartaglione rose to a headlining spot of his own. Having been featured on satellite radio and NBC’s "Last Comic Standing," he has become nationally renowned.
