Joseph Vecsey’s “All Star Comedy” show returns to Bay Street Theater on Saturday, November 9, at 8 p.m. with a hysterical, all-new line-up. The series, now celebrating its 13th season, will follow up previous all-but-sold-out performances with special guest comedians Chase Abel, Erica Spera and Dino Vigo.

Since its inception in 2010, comedian Joseph Vecsey has led “All Star Comedy,” bringing stand-up veterans and fresh faces alike to headline the series at Bay Street.

Chase Abel is a comedian and podcaster whose self-deprecating style of humor resonates with his diverse fan base. Abel has been a fan of comedy since his early years of watching John Ritter, Eddie Murphy, Martin Lawrence and many more. Born in Khartoum, Sudan, to Eritrean parents, Abel and his family immigrated to the U.S. as refugees, landing in Boston. He quickly adopted the passion and affinity for comedy. Whether on stage or recording a podcast, Abel delivers hilarious anecdotes and observations through the lens of an Eritrean-American immigrant. His ability to merge his personal passions and off-the-cuff style provides a remembered experience. He is quickly impacting the Boston comedy scene after leaving a job in finance to pursue comedy. Chase Abel can be seen performing regularly at Nicks Comedy Stop and Rhode Island Comedy Connection.

Erica Spera is a Los Angeles-based comedian and writer originally from Binghamton, New York. She has been featured on “The Late Late Show with James Corden,” “Don’t Tell Comedy,” and was named one of Conan’s TBS Comics to Watch. She also hosts the popular podcasts “Shooters Gotta Shoot” and “Finding Mr. Height.”

Dino Vigo is one of today’s most refreshingly pure comics, with uncompromising wit and a minimalist approach to the mic. A skilled writer and performer, Vigo seems poised to take the comedy world by storm and yet remains remarkably grounded in his approach to his craft.

“I just want to be one of the ones to preserve comedy in its truest form and have people say he did it the way it was to be done,” Vigo said.

Tickets are $37 and $47 in advance ($47 and $57 on show day) at baystreet.org, 631-725-9500 or at the box office on Long Wharf in Sag Harbor.
