Every once in a while an event takes place that makes you shake your head and say “That was truly AMAZING.”The “NY Kings” Comedy Tour is one of those events. Veteran comedians Capone, Talent Harris, Rob Stapleton, Mark Viera and Drew Fraser bring the funny from the moment the first NY KING hits the stage until the end, leaving audiences laughing like they’ve never laughed before. There are no ‘weak’ spots as one of the most unique aspects about this show is the versatility of the lineup.
Talent Harris‘ uncanny gift to command your attention from the on set never lets you go, as his presence swoops in to take you for a hysterical ride. From hosting his own radio show on New York’s WBLS to co-starring roles in films like Sunset Park and Brotherly Love,Talent is a name well deserving of this NY King. – Def Comedy Jam, Comic View, 1st Amendment Standup,
Drew Fraser‘s unique, high energy, and side splitting humor, is sure to crack your ribs. Drew began his career in Boston, Massachusetts at “Nick’s Comedy Stop”. He later moved to New York City where his career took off hosting “Amateur Night” at the world famous Apollo Theater, doing warm- ups for TV shows such as “The Queen Latifah Show” and co-hosting “P.Diddy’s Bad Boys of Comedy”. – Def Comedy Jam, Bad Boys Of Comedy, Comic View.
Just as the pain begins to subside, Rob Stapleton steps to the stage and hits you in your face with his energetic style and hilarious wit that has made him a fan favorite from New York to Los Angeles . Raised in the Bronx, New York, Rob uses his keen observations to take his performances to the next level. His talent knows no boundaries as this filmmaker, writer, producer is in post production on his feature film “The Stuff” – Def Comedy Jam, Comic View, Bad Boys Of Comedy, 1st Amendment Stand Up, Comedy Central Presents.

The show reaches new heights when Capone (The Gangster Of Comedy) steps up to the stage and brings his patented rambunctious energy that very few can follow. When Capone entered comedy, he was told the gangster moniker wasn’t a wise career move. People might be uncomfortable with the connotations. “If you believe in your brand, you don’t give it up just because some people don’t believe it, he says. “I’ve sold drugs, I’ve sold many different things. Now I’m just selling myself — and I’m not selling myself short.” – Def Comedy Jam, Comic View, Shaq’s All Star Comedy.
