Room 28 Comedy Theatre Extravaganza Spectacular Comes to the Poet's Den This Weekend

Room 28's Comedy Theatre Extravaganza Spectacular is set for two nights only, tonight, October 17, 2014 at 8 p.m. and Saturday, October 18, 2014 at 8 p.m at NYC's legendary Poet's Den, 309 East 108th Street, New York, NY 10029.

There is a saying in the Dominican Republic that when someone is insane they belong in "el cuarto veinte y ocho" (room 28); a reference to the asylum located at the 28th milepost between the cities of Santiago and Santo Domingo.

Here in the United States when you refer to Room 28, you are being reminded of a similarly insane group of people, but this time around they are comedic actors who are quickly taking the world of sketch comedy by storm.

Since inception this bizarre (in a good way!) group has brought laughter and bladder problems to thousands of viewers via filmed skits broadcasted on various Internet outlets. Highlighting anything from breakups to inventive ways of using ketchup, Room 28 finds humor in any feasible situation. And the humor is contagious.

Everyone is now asking, "Who are these nuts called Room 28?"
