in his one-man show, Taking It From The Streets
Comedy legend Albert Owens retakes NYC, bringing his legendary comedy act indoors for this rare one-man show. For over 25 years, Albert entertained, educated, amused, and humiliated hundreds of thousands of people in his riotous stand-up sets in Washington Square Park. And now he's back! Afraid of nothing, with incredible comic timing and range, Albert offers ferocious satirical insight on big topics like race relations, gentrification, war, and class warfare. But he's never too far from a comment on someone's silly accent, bad hair, or absurd mannerisms.
Admit it. You watched him perform at Washington Square dozens of times, but you never pitched in a buck when the bucket was passed around. And, over the last few years, you've missed his ferociously brilliant wit. Well, now is the time to step up, to come see Albert at his best!
And if you haven't seen Albert before, you have even more reason to come. Albert is the underground godfather of NYC comedy - the old-school guru who can still outdo any of the youngsters. You've just got to see it.
