The Bay Street Theater and Sag Harbor Center for the Arts have announced the return of All Star Comedy, with a brand new show on October 14 at 8 p.m.

Joseph Vecsey will return to host the evening, which will feature up and coming New York comics Ken Krantz, Gary Vider and Billy Prinsell.

Mr. Vecsey made his television stand up debut on Gotham’s AXS TV. Earlier this year, he wrote, acted, edited and directed a sketch for MTV2’s popular show “Uncommon Sense” called Stud Walk. Mr. Vecsey currently performs in New York City and California and hosted a sold-out Laugh Out Loud Comedy Show in Bermuda.

Mr. Krantz grew up the youngest of eight kids and started his standup career in 2009. Mr. Krantz is known for his relaxed style combined with self-critical humor. Mr. Krantz has performed at most of the major clubs in New York, including Gotham, The Stand, The Stress Factory, Stand Up NY and The Comedy Shoppe.

Mr. Vider is a Queens native that always wanted to be a stand-up comedian. After being fired from a receptionist job, he hit the New York comedy scene. One of his favorite quotes is from a patron after a recent show, that couldn’t remember his name. The post read, “I can’t remember his name, but that short weird bald guy is funny.”

Mr. Prinsell was named one of Comedy Central’s ‘top comics to watch’ in 2015. Mr. Prinsell has been doing stand-up in New York City for close to a decade and acted in Tru TV’s “Friends of the People.” He performed in the New York and Bridgetown Comedy festivals and regularly does stand-up at Caroline’s comedy club in New York City.

Tickets cost $30 and are on sale now at www.baystreet.org or by calling the Box Office at (631)725- 9500. Tickets are $40 the day of the event and it is R-rated adult comedy.
