YOU GET A SPOON! to Play UNDER St. Marks, Begin. 6/21

Join comedian and host Chris Duffy for a night of NYC's best performers sharing their work and the things they love. Each artist performs a set, and then they give away prizes that they love to audience members. It's an Oprah-style audience giveaway! Previous audience members have taken home candy bars, books, magazine subscriptions, kitchen appliances, gaff tape, and a Tovolo mixing spoon (the greatest spoon in the universe). Guaranteed to be the most positive way to spend a Sunday night in NYC.

June's guest will include musician and storyteller Gideon Irving, spoken word poet and human rights lawyer Mark Doss, and a surprise guest comedian!

You Get a Spoon! plays at UNDER St. Marks (94 St. Marks Place between 1st Avenue and Avenue A) every Third Sunday of the month at 7pm. Tickets ($12) are available online at www.horsetrade.info.

CHRIS DUFFY (Host) is a standup comedian and improviser who has performed at colleges and festivals throughout the country (including SF Sketchfest, Caltech, Brown, Harvard, the Eugene Mirman Comedy Festival, the Cambridge Science Festival, and more). Chris is also the creator and host of You're the Expert, a live show and public radio program on WBUR where three comedians try to guess what a professor studies all day. Don't confuse him with professional bodybuilder Chris Duffy. While they share identical names and physiques, they are different people. In addition to comedy, Chris is a writer whose work has appeared in The New York Times, Boston Globe, Makeshift Magazine, and Wag's Revue. Chris, a former fifth grade teacher, leads workshops at schools and universities on using humor in the classroom and consults on various projects at the intersection of comedy, education, and communication.
