All Star Comedy at Bay Street

Bay Street Theater has announced the hysterical line-up for the third iteration of this season’s All Star Comedy series, set for Saturday, November 4, at 8 p.m. The series, now celebrating its 13th season, will follow up two previous all-but-sold-out performances with special guest comedians Dante Nero and Mike King.

Dante Nero, born and bred in Brooklyn, is a trained martial artist who dabbled in various fields before turning to comedy. He earned a fencing scholarship to SUNY New Paltz and parlayed this college experience to be become a male exotic dancer. When not “taking it off” he spent time earning money as an underground bare-knuckle fighter as well as a bouncer at various dance clubs in New York City. In 2000, Nero turned to a different sort of performance: stand-up comedy. He quickly made a name for himself with his smart, honest, raw and hilarious point of view. He co-hosted “The Black Phillip Show” with Patrice O’Neal, a relationship advice show on Sirius XM Radio. Later he turned that into his own successful Podcast called “Beige Phillips Man School” which has received over five million downloads.

Comedian and dentist Mike King has built his pediatric dental practice in an unusual manner. In the comedy club circuit, he’s known as “The Fifth Dentist.” You know, “Four out of five dentists recommend sugarless gum.” Well, he’s the fifth! He appears weekly at Broadway Comedy Club, New York Comedy Club, and Gotham Comedy Club. He also takes his hilarious stand-up routine on the road, especially to dental conventions. Currently, King is working on his one-man show, “The Fifth Dentist.” He has appeared on “America’s Funniest Home Videos” and “An Evening at the Improv.”

All Star Comedy has been led by comedian Joseph Vecsey since its 2010 inception. The series has been headlined by stand-up veterans and fresh faces alike and has grown to become the East End’s premier live comedy series. Bay Street is thrilled to have its side-splitting comedy back on its stage!

Tickets are $35 and $45 at baystreet.org or 631-725-9500. Bay Street Theater is on Long Wharf in Sag Harbor.
