Brick City Comedy Revue (Newark Arts Festival Edition)

This month's show features:

Farah “Moonie” Desvarieux is a lawyer-turned-comedian who is a regular at clubs across New York City. She was nominated Queerty Award for Best Web Series in 2023.
Josh Tinley is a comedian from New Brunswick, NJ. He frequents many of the best clubs in NYC and NJ. Also, he is the host of the podcast “one of the good ones.” He has a really funny sketch page on Instagram, “badqualityandco.” He also coproduces one of the best shows in NJ “Let’s Go” comedy in East Brunswick, NJ.

Chris Bacchus cut his teeth in the NJ hardcore scene before turning his riffs into punchlines. Blending raw DIY grit with sharp, self-aware comedy, he’s brought his unfiltered voice to stages across the country—including Jimmy Kimmel’s Comedy Club, Levity Live, Atlanta Comedy Theater, and Gotham Comedy Club.
Jennifer Rosado is a rising comedian with a sharp wit and a fresh voice in the stand-up scene. After training in comedy writing at the legendary Comedy Cellar in New York City in 2024, Jennifer quickly made her way onto open mic stages across the tri-state area. She’s been a part of the “new jack,” segment in shows for Bill the Billionaire. Blending personal stories with quick-fire observations, Jennifer delivers laughs with a unique rhythm shaped by her background in improv, having studied at the New Jersey School of Dramatic Arts. Jennifer is proving to be a comedic voice you won’t forget.
Var360 was born in Newark, raised in Irvington and resides in Hillside. With mental health being my main concern he uses his witty and sarcastic pov to paint you an overly exaggerated picture of what some may believe to be true.
