Join comedians Jesse McGrath, Seamus Calder, Rachel Levinson as well as Brandon Garner as they virtually battle amongst themselves while physically battling inebriation. Audience participation is essential as a live crowd and online viewers—from the streaming platform Twitch—suggest new rules and new gags. Power-up, throw down and push buttons (in more ways than one)!

LAN Party! A Live Video Game Comedy Show @ The Creek and The Cave
May 23 @ 8:00 pm – 9:30 pm

LAN Party is an interactive comedy show where comedians play video games alongside a live audience.

It’s like a big video game hang out party, where the audience is encouraged to shout out directions and advice as the comedians make their way through the weird video games chosen for them to play.

This month, we’re going to be hunting dinosaurs in TUROK with comedians Emily Winter and Chris Calogero!

So come to the The Creek and The Cave in NYC at 8 PM to hang out! Or follow online at https://www.twitch.tv/harddrivenews. Either way, the show is totally free!
