  • “The people who run Manhattan Comedy School go out of their way to make sure you have all the tools you need to begin a career in stand-up comedy. They are available for questions, comments, information sessions, brainstorming and, once you graduate the program, they are always ready and willing to share the contacts and connections they have all across the New York comedy scene. If you are a beginner who has always wanted to try stand-up, the MCS is a great place to get started.”
    — Brian Koppelman, Creator of Showtime's "Billions", Writer of "Oceans Thirteen" and "Rounders"
  • “I loved my experience at The Manhattan Comedy School. They sharpened my act, and more importantly, I find it helps me in my business dealings particularly where I'm pitching a new TV sitcom or reality show.”
    — Pete Lengyel, Executive Producer of "Super Troopers"
  • “I booked AXS TV after auditioning via one of Andy’s Showcases. After the filming, Andy put me in touch with a college agent who took me on. With them I was able to start touring, and from there get a manager and a talent agent. Andy was integral in suggesting the showcase and then connecting me with a great college agent. I recommend doing everything you can to showcase for AXS-TV—it’s a very unique, and relatively accessible TV opportunity…that is truly invaluable to people at ANY level. Go…go for it…you have to!”
    — Emma Willman, The Late Show with Stephen Colbert, AXS TV, CNN's The History of Comedy
  • “The Manhattan Comedy School has helped countless young comedians get started. I recommend them.”
    — Jim Gaffigan, International Headliner
  • “Andy was the only person I would trust to showcase a young comedian who wanted to take their career to the next level.”
    — Barry Katz, Emmy Award-Nominated Executive Producer of NBC’s Last Comic Standing and Grammy Award-Nominated Album Producer
