About this Event

Join us for the 25th session of the Syracuse Actors Studio (SAS), which will be STAND-UP COMEDY with Joey Marcus and our 2nd BIRTHDAY PARTY at The Palace Theatre in Eastwood, Syracuse!

Joey Marcus is a long-time SAS member and also a stand-up comedian with extensive experience in improv, juggling, and comedy. He will be giving us a Stand-Up Comedy seminar, both instructional and with exercises. We are so excited to have him teach us!

It’s our 2nd Birthday! Come celebrate with us. We will be having a pizza party and cupcakes, thanks to Solon Quinn Studios and our actors, Dave Spiro & Brian Piccioni, who recently appeared in one of their commercials. Our birthday party will be after the seminar, but pizza will be available at 7.
We have a new home! We are excited and grateful to call The Palace Theatre our new home for SAS. We are so excited to host SAS in this beautiful, historic theatre!

Performances are back! We have a few signed up, but are still looking for a few more to fill our half-hour slot. If interested in performing a monologue or scene (that you select and organize), please email Joe Cunningham at [email protected] with your name and headshot to reserve your spot. Spaces are limited.

And as always, at the end, we will have a small amount of time for announcements if anyone wants to plug a show, announce casting, or the like. Stay after as well to network and socialize.
We will have SAS After Hours with Jay Merante of Jay Merante Comedy. Please like & subscribe! It’s always a lot of fun, and we encourage anyone who wants to stay after to join in the improv comedy. Jay is also open to actors' ideas for skits.

Parking is available in several places: the lot behind the theatre, the United Healthcare lot across the street, and street parking.
Special thanks to Tracy Chamberlain Higginbotham for assisting with catering and PR this session. Please contact her if you can volunteer to help with catering.

We hope to see you there! It is going to be a really fun time!
