Andy's NYC Tips - Halloween parade + NYC Marathon

Best places to view each event

🗽 Introducing Andy’s NYC Insider Tips! A new monthly feature celebrating the very best of New York City! Hi Everyone, After more than 30 years producing comedy in NYC, I've accumulated quite a few insider tips about this extraordinary city. So I'm launching a new monthly feature called “Andy's NYC Insider Tips!” Each month, I'll share a few of my favorite NYC discoveries — remarkable museums, hidden gems, great films, special events, beautiful architecture, spectacular views, and places you might never find on your own. And the best part? These recommendations have absolutely nothing to do with selling you anything! Just my way of sharing some of the things I love about New York. 🎃 Insider Tip #1: NYC's Halloween Parade — TONIGHT! Saturday, October 31 — 7 PM One of the most imaginative, entertaining, and wonderfully outrageous events in New York City! People travel from around the world to experience this incredible spectacle of costumes, giant puppets, music, and pure NYC creativity. And here's my insider tip: Try to watch the parade on Sixth Avenue, as close to Spring Street as possible. Arrive early because the crowds can be enormous! This parade has a special place in my heart. From approximately 1986 to 2006, I recruited groups of about 20 comedian friends to work along the parade route, helping raise funds to support this wonderful NYC tradition. We had a blast doing it! 🏃 Insider Tip #2: The NYC Marathon — TOMORROW! Sunday, November 1 Even if you've never run a mile in your life, I strongly recommend experiencing the NYC Marathon in person. The determination, energy, and emotion of watching thousands of people accomplish something extraordinary is truly inspiring. My insider tip: One of my favorite viewing areas is Fifth Avenue between East 90th and 105th Streets, where runners make their final push toward Central Park. It's a fantastic place to cheer them on when they need encouragement most! And here's why the marathon means so much to me. Beginning with the very first NYC Marathon in 1970, I volunteered for decades, through the early 2000s. The rare aerial photograph I'm sharing above by my mom Ruth Orkin shows runners entering Central Park during the very first marathon in 1970! It's a wonderful reminder of how a relatively small event in Central Park grew into one of the world's greatest sporting celebrations. Coming Next Month... What is the BEST job a comedian can possibly have? After 30-plus years in the NYC comedy world, I have a very definite answer. And I suspect it will surprise you! Until then, enjoy this amazing city. There is simply nowhere else like it! Best, Andy Engel Founder/Director Manhattan Comedy School 832-780-4127 www.manhattancomedyschool.com     Our Company | Contact Us | FAQs | Privacy Policy

Comedy Accelerator Only 3 openings MCS Advanced Mentorship Stop guessing your next move in comedy. A 12-month career development program with Andy Engel, industry pros and Emmy winners, backed by real stage time in top NYC comedy clubs. Apply for one of only 3 spots → I've spent more than 30 years producing shows and developing comedians in New York. Most comics don't stall because they lack talent. They stall because they don't have experienced professionals helping them decide what's working, what needs to change and what their next move should be. The comedians who move forward have experienced people in their corner — and enough stage time to put that guidance into practice. I'm offering both to just THREE comedians this year. I'm keeping it to three on purpose so each person receives serious individual attention. The Program What your 12 months include Two MCS classes + industry guidance $900 value Two Manhattan Comedy School classes of your choice, plus ongoing professional guidance to help you make smarter decisions about your comedy career. 10 guest spots — no bringer requirement $2,000 value Ten guest spots on MCS-produced shows with NO bringer requirement, including shows currently running at Comic Strip Live, Rodney's and Bill's Supper Club.

That's a $450 savings for joining before Monday — and there are only 3 openings. The math Why no-bringer stage time matters A typical NYC bringer show can cost your five guests $200+ in tickets and drink minimums just so you can perform. Your 10 guest spots have NO bringer requirement. You concentrate on your comedy — not selling seats. Manhattan Comedy School has been seen in The New York Times · The Wall Street Journal · CNN Beyond the program The advanced opportunities There is another potential part of this mentorship that could become extremely valuable. These opportunities are NOT automatic or guaranteed. Only when my team and I believe you and your material are truly ready will we consider helping open these additional doors: Comedy festivals Guidance on which festivals make sense for you and, when appropriate, introductions to festival producers and owners. Industry introductions Potential introductions to agents, managers, comedy club owners, producers and other industry professionals. Major club opportunities Guidance on when you're ready to pursue auditions and opportunities at major comedy clubs. Paid work When your act reaches the appropriate professional level, help identifying and potentially connecting you with paid comedy opportunities. None of these are promises that a festival will accept you, an agent or manager will sign you, a club will pass you or that you'll receive paid bookings. What I can promise is that if you've done the work and our team believes you're ready, we'll help you identify and pursue the appropriate next opportunities. Who this is for ✓ You're already performing and serious about reaching another level. ✓ You want professional judgment — not just encouragement. ✓ You want NYC stage time without repeatedly asking friends to buy tickets. ✓ You want experienced professionals evaluating your work. ✓ You're prepared to commit to a serious year of development. This program isn't for everybody. It's for three serious comedians. I personally review every applicant and speak with each finalist before offering a spot. $2,250 Paid in full Price increases to $2,700 Monday, October 26. Apply for one of only 3 spots → If interested, please call ASAP. We already have interest and very limited spots available. 832-780-4127 Andy Engel Founder & Director, Manhattan Comedy School 832-780-4127 aengelcomedy@gmail.com manhattancomedyschool.com P.S. Having an experienced, Emmy-winning team working with you and advising you for an entire year is invaluable — and can prove to be a major game changer in your career development that far exceeds the cost of this mentorship. Only three people will be accepted.
